Holographic displays are only seen in movies like Star Wars and Iron Man. The technology isn’t a reality yet. But Apple seems to be taking the lead to make holographic display a dream come true.
Telegraph reported that a recent granted patent reveals Apple’s interest in this field. In fact, Apple’s interest was first sighted back in May earlier this year. The patent filing described the technology as “a new and advance method of multi-touch input, through manipulation of three-dimensional holograms that can be touched by a user.”
Movies have teased us with many different possibilities with this technology. Maybe one day, computers would have holographic displays like what Tony Stark has in his Iron Man lab. Advertising billboards could display gorgeous holographic images that are able to tell a better product story than print or commercials.
If holographic technology were to be successfully developed for commercial use, it would probably open up a whole new market, redefining how we use today’s technology.
