Come to think of it, with this, "screen" ceases to be a valid display concept. You can do true 3-D imaging, real-world overlays, and shapes floating free in space without reference to a rectangular region. It's no wonder one of their biggest investors is the DoD. Objects would still be restricted to the cone behind the display unit, though. Unless you got a wide display and used it to cover the whole FOV of the eye, kind of like current virtual reality goggles do. Then "screen" becomes closer to "hemisphere". --Blair "Oh, man.
