It is good, but I disagree that it is the "good kind of 3d."
I'm still waiting for REAL 3d projection. Like in Star-Wars where they project the deathstar as an actual 3d object in the air.

That's awesome. I want one.

I see having one made from your own data costs thousands of dollars though.

Upvote purely for the "no the good kind of 3d" tag

I remember coming across a shop selling loads of holograms in Amsterdam. Most were monochromatic, but a few were in colour and very impressive.

They aren't as far as you think.

I want one of these to make the surface for the most badassed coffee table in history.

Yes, the color here seems pretty amazing compared to what I am used to seeing in holograms. Not quite a map though since this is a static image, if you could do a full Google Maps sort of things then that would add to how cool it is.

My problem with the Star Wars in the air projection is the black levels have to suck in a regular living room. It seems like the illusion would be less convincing if projected in the air than if projected on a panel where it could be more like watching it through a window... at least until holodeck technology comes along.

Perhaps he meant to say "Not quite a map because it is not a static image."

LOL. I have no idea what I was going for...I get spoiled by Google Maps begin to forget the old paper maps. I'll just hide in the corner until my brain returns.
