wtf is that

I can't wait to replace my 19" LCD monitor with one of those.

"Any sort of technology that uses precisely aligned, intersecting infrared lasers to create small amounts of plasma tends to worry us a little, seeing as plasma is, well, quite hot. That hasn’t stopped the folks at Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) from developing a true 3D display using this very technique. The device, on display at SIGGRAPH 2006, is able to produce up to 100 dots per second, which in turn are used to create a true, three dimensional image."

It's so real I could almost reach out and... OUCH! my hand is on fire!

Interesting proof of concept, but I wouldn't want one in my living room.

um... was the effect lost because of the frame rate of the camera?
