3D Cellphone From Seiko Epson
Seiko Epson Corp is developing a display for 3D cellphones that will let you take a look at a high-resolution three-dimensional image without any special glasses.
(3D cellphone screen)
The 2.57 inch display has a resolution of 1024/768, yielding about 500 ppi (pixels per inch). A special lenticular lens is used to present a slightly different perspective to each eye.
This is a very cool effort, even if it doesn't quite come up to the standard set by the hand-held projector/data repository for the plans of the Death Star in the second Star Wars movie.
