Heliodisplay BY MIDHUN PAUL
Introduction • Heliodisplay is a technology used for displaying images in mid air. • In the heliodisplay, a projector focuses the image onto a layer of mist in mid-air, resulting in a two-dimensional display that appears to float.

Working • The device converts the imaging properties of the air so that the air is taken in, converted instantaneously, and then re-ejected out • The system thus creates a dynamic, non solid particle cloud by ejecting atomized condensate present in the surrounding air • Now the projector projects the given input on the found invisible screen
Developments in heliodisplay • MODEL M1 • MODEL M2 • MODEL M3 and M30 • MODEL M50 and M100 • Model L90 • P-SERIES
Specifications • 1024 x 768 resolution, 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratios. • 2000:1 contrast ratio • Supports all formats • Projects any images that would be viewable on a computer screen or televison • No specialized hardware or software • 3D compatible
Advantages • No screen to project images • Device is light weight and can be converted into a furniture • Nothing is added to air. Nothing affects air quality projected images and video are two-dimensional, but appear 3D since there is no physical depth reference • Heliodisplay does not create fog, so no electronic devices in the room are affected • Heliodisplay can be used in any country since it works on 95-115 or 220-240 VAC • Heliodisplay, imagery can be seen up to 75 degrees off aspect for a total viewing area of over 150 degrees • No special glasses required to see the display • Translucency is controlled by the heliodisplay
Disadvantages • Heliodisplay is very expensive • Viewing a Heliodisplay image in direct sunlight is almost impossible • Screen is essentially air, so it can become distorted with too much air movement in the room
Applications • Advertising/promotion • Video conferencing • Virtual surgery and pre-operative planning • Military training programs • Gaming/artwork • Engineering/architecture plans • Build the Heliodisplay into furniture
Fogscreen • Fogscreen is a display surface made out of a cloud of water vapor diffused into the air as a very dry fog

Perspecta • A real 3D image is generated by Perspecta display, which draws 2D images on a quickly rotating screen to fill the entire volume swept out by its path
Conclusion • Heliodisplay has great potential and would be ideal for collaborative work • Heliodisplays is still in the initial stages and the flaws of cost and environment of positioning will soon be overcome. • Several other thin air-displays are available but heliodisplay outclasses them, because of the attention it draws and its maintainability, and as a result it has more market value • Its various applications such as in advertising, a board room etc suggests that its future scope is very bright.
