3D hologram display for everyone?
I have to admit that i am a 3D fan, i like 3D displays, holograms, etc but I am pretty sure that I can’t afford one, or better i couldn’t.
A 3D display interactive system by the Graphics Lab of the University of Southern California i said to be low cost and easiy reproducible. Above all these, this system is impressive, as almost every other 3D display.
Some characteristics of the systems are :
autostereoscopic - requires no special viewing glasses
omnidirectional - generates simultaneous views accomodating large numbers of viewers
interactive - can update content at 200Hz
Well, this one requires a video. Here it is 
Optical Illusions To Replace Speed Bumps/Humps
“Drive CarePhilly” hopes to lower the driving speeds in the streets around Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. 3D images, pretending to be road hurdles, will be printed on the streets in an attempt not only to make motorists pay some attention to the speed limits but also avoid the car damages that the usual speed bumps cause. Other types of speed reducing methods are the
Speed cushions, chicanes, rumble strips and rubber speed humps (Inflatable when speeding vehicles approach).

jDome: The Revolution In 3D Gaming?
No need for virtual reality when you can have the jDome. This gadget offers the 3D effect by using a simple light trick. A projector shines the game/image on a semi spherical semi transparent glass. When the gamer stands in the middle of the dome he feels surrounded by this 180 degree view. This is the brain child of John Nilsson and it is still under development. The expected price tag (without the projector) is $125-200 a far cry from the prototype’s cost of $6000. Hopefully when it hits the market, it will come at a decent price.

Is It Real Or Is It 3D?
Its called Spacetractor and its a 3D creation designed by Exor. This is has been modelled with Cinema 4D and rendered with Finalrender software. it seems that technology has moved so much that computer generated stuff have started to look very real

Eat In 3D Screens
The whole world is looking with great interest the photos of a table with a 3D touchscreen which was published by ScoutJapan. As the site said, restaurant customers can navigate through various dishes.
This table has another interesting function. If for instance you pick up a burger bun then you will see underneath the contents of a cheesburger!
Till now there are no videos of this specific table and the photos can not show you the whole story. Since this table is based on monitors made by TEC Japan (Toshiba) I assume that this will be based on a screen that they presented on CEATEC about 1.5 years ago. See the video below.
