While I did not physically attend NAB this year, I was able to summarize some of the 8K-related news coming out of NAB. Maybe next year I will attend to provide the depth and details that remote reporting can’t provide. Overall, it seems rather impressive that there were several live 8K demos this year along […]

Microdisplays are different from direct-view displays like those found in TVs, monitors, or phones. First, the size of microdisplays is smaller than 1.3 inches in diagonal. Second, microdisplays have a […]
Having followed the development of 3D, lightfield, and holographic displays for some time, I have come to believe that evolving the traditional raster pixel approach to smaller and smaller pixels is not going to get us to where we need to be to achieve high-fidelity lightfield or true holographic images. We need a breakthrough display […]
