Dimension/Depth/Space


Here is a three dimensional display created at the Institute for Creative Technologies, USC. The display uses a high speed camera and a revolving mirror to create a projection of any object giving it the appearance of three dimensions. The objects, a running person in this picture, are presented at about a quarter of their true scale and can be viewed with correct perspective from 360 degrees. The images are believable in tone, but lack color, giving them a monochromatic green or blue look. The images move at a tell tale 20 frames per second and the miniatures are confined to the respective space within the revolving mirrors. Nevertheless, this impressive piece of technology is sure to drive a leg within many disciplines of design.
