The display allows users to view 360-degree images by projecting them onto a transparent cylindrical screen.Usually, because light passes through transparent objects, so transparent displays are difficult to balance transparency and projection brightness. This time, SONY has developed a new holographic display capable of displaying high-intensity images while maintaining high transparency, Through unique cylindrical projection optical design to achieve a 360-degree, vivid image viewing.

The main contents of the 360-degree transparent cylindrical display screen are displayed on SIGGRAPH2019£º

The 360-degree high-speed camera tracking function makes 2D images come to life

With the IMX383 image sensor, a high-speed camera capable of taking 1,000 frames per second,The 360-degree tracking of the viewer's position allows the viewer to feel that the image exists in the cylinder, and even the 2D image can be lifelike.

Through the linkage of multiple display screens (development samples), To create a new space performance application program

Display with multiple monitors (development samples) to link the models of each image, and proposes a new method of spatial performance for image creators.

Live use of 360 degree video display, realize real-time interaction of light and sound

The 360 degree image and the matching music are controlled in real time through gestures,achieving a new interactive entertainment experience.The application was developed specifically for the demo by SONY interactive entertainment.
