(PhysOrg.com) -- Although today's 3D displays require viewers to wear special glasses, many research groups are working toward glasses-free 3D displays. Most recently, Microsoft`s Applied Sciences Group has demonstrated a stereoscopic 3D display that projects different images to a viewer`s left and right eyes, and doesn`t require glasses. The display uses a viewer-tracking system, which consists of a camera that tracks viewers` eyes and a lens that steers light directly into the viewers` eyes by switching LEDs along its bottom edge on and off.
