"This isn't some toy being sold at toysrus."

Why the heck not?
That would amazing.

Instead of shoehorning this display tech where it stands little chance next to existing AR solutions, it could live as say, the 3D animated, volumetric head of some robotic action figure.
Or the turrets of some high tech castle fortress toy.
Or as some pet-fish living in a magic cube, that you feed virtual treats too.

Imagine, a 2 inch cube, with a special circle/portal/worhmhole at the base.
Press a button, and a little space fish swims off your phone screen, through the real portal at the base of the cube, as a ghostly hologram, awaiting your attention.
It would be amazing.

Single color, small size, transparent would be no problem at all.

Ive been thinking about this applications for years for volumetric displays.
I have no idea if they can shrink the supporting optics (and cost) to such a small size, but I think its worth investigating.


If it didn't take off with kids, the hacker/maker community would snap each one of the shelves (I know I sure as heck would).
