A new type of display creates 3D images using a laser to form tiny bubbles inside a liquid 'screen'.

The display itself is three-dimensional, allowing viewers to see a 3D image from all angles without the use of 3D glasses or virtual reality headsets.

Researchers foresee this technology being used to help doctors visualize a patient's anatomy prior to surgery or let the military study terrain before missions



The display was designed by researchers at Utsunomiya University in Japan and their findings published in Optica, which successfully demonstrated the ability of their volumetric bubble display to create changeable color graphics.



'Creating a full-color updatable volumetric display is challenging because many three-dimensional pixels, or voxels, with different colors have to be formed to make volumetric graphics,' said Kota Kumagai, first author of the paper.

'In our display, the microbubble voxels are three-dimensionally generated in a liquid using focused femtosecond laser pulses. The bubble graphics can be colored by changing the color of the illumination light.'
