I could be wrong -- but the probability factor at this point indicates to me that BOEING will support the grant proposals that 3DICON spoke about and that CSPACE will play a big role in the next-gen ATC systems that the FAA has been working toward with BOEING, and NASA..

Consider the following if you wish:

2007

"A meeting was held in December to develop a new process to transition NextGen technologies from NASA to the FAA for implementation."

"A key outcome was the selection of 3D-Path Arrival Management (3D-PAM) as the initial technology to be transferred under the TMA team. 3D-PAM provides efficient arrival solutions in congested airspace by coupling NASA’s ground-based automation for conflict-free, time-based metering with airborne Required Navigation Performance functions.."

"we submitted a proposal to a Department of Energy laboratory known for its extensive work in image materials with nanoparticles, seeking to combine efforts. Based on discussions with the laboratory team, the proposal was re-submitted on February 1, 2010. If accepted, the scope of the proposed project will be to complete a high-resolution, full-color prototype.."

"Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to Develop Nanocrystals for 3DIcon Under Department of Energy Contract"

"3DIcon's current efforts include discussions with potential partners in furtherance of its goal of aggressively pursuing the commercialization of CSpace in a variety of applications."

Aug. 6, 2010

"will present a paper entitled "A Technique for Flicker Reduction in a Volumetric Three-dimensional Display with a Static Image Space" to the SPIE Security & Defence 2010 International Symposium to be held in Toulouse, France, September 20-23. The conference is called Europe's largest and most prestigious security and defense event."

"We continue to make significant progress in our pursuit of potential partners in furtherance of our goal of the commercialization of CSpace in a variety of applications"

October 2010

"FAA has a need for an air traffic controller subject matter expert for the development of the 3 Dimensional Path Arrival Management (3D PAM) concept and its associated Decision Support Tool (DST). The 3D PAM concept is being developed by the FAA in partnership with NASA and the Boeing Company.

"The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has announced the granting of U.S. Patent 7,858,913 for CSpace®"

CSpace has a wide market for potential applications in such fields as medical imaging (CT, MRI, dental), baggage and cargo scanning, military performance-mission planning, tactical awareness, decision support, and post engagement assessment-engineering and geospatial exploration, education and training applications, entertainment applications (video games), air traffic control systems, space transportation systems, and earth science research. For example, CSpace provides volume rendering of the surface and the interior of any human organ, which could increase the effectiveness of real-time imaging systems such as fMRI that are central to future medical care and research. Other types of displays, such as holographic displays, can render objects but are unable to show an interior view; those displays would not be effective in applications that require rendering of object interiors such as medical images, cargo scanning for homeland security, and others."

"Former President and COO of 3DIcon to Support Commercialization of CSpace"

"our next goal is to complete improvements to the resolution and scalability of the image space. This will place CSpace well on its way to commercialization," added Mr. Bhaman"

"Technology Receives Interest From Industry Leaders"

"3DIcon has begun preliminary discussions with leading firms in some of these markets."

"In addition to gathering interest, these discussions have led to support for our research and grant funding efforts. For our grant proposals to NASA and the National Science Foundation, the Boeing Company has provided letters of interest and indicated to the granting agencies their willingness to consider assisting 3DIcon in the development of its technology,"

"3DIcon's Technology Accepted by Four Peer Reviewed Journals and Conferences"

"3D Images Using CSpace Display for Air Traffic Control Applications," by Dr. Hakki H. Refai IEEE/OSA Journal of Display Technology Journal article accepted and scheduled for publication in first quarter 2011"

Excerpt of this article:

"For the current and next generation of ATC systems, displays are needed that provide more rapid updating and more informative representation of the state of the airspace. The 3D display system described in this work has demonstrated the ability to render 3D images containing multiple objects without resorting to visual tricks and without dead zones, and can refresh the image space at rates equal to or greater than the once-per-second rate targeted for NextGen systems by the FAA. The display accomplishes this performance by combining a unique method for displaying images and the capabilities of the CSpace algorithm. Further optimization of the system is ongoing and will allow the display to meet the resolution requirements of the ATC application."

"Building Technology Team to Advance CSpace Toward Commercialization"

"appointed Dr. Brian G. Hoover as its Vice President of Technology Development. Dr. Hoover will work with 3DIcon's Chief Technology Officer, Dr. Hakki Refai, and Technology Advisory Board Chairman, Vivek Bhaman, to reach the next technology milestones, bringing CSpace closer to market"


March 23, 2011

"Advanced Materials and Nanoparticles Research Facility Now Available to 3DIcon"

"3DIcon will utilize the facility's highly specialized equipment for the creation of an image space with enhanced brightness and resolution. The new image space will be significantly larger than the current prototype, yet transportable enough for use at trade shows and in meetings with potential commercial partners."

"Since opening in 2008, OSU researchers have already been successful in securing grants from several entities including NASA, the National Science Foundation and Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology."

"This agreement will assist us in reaching our next milestone in technology development on our path to commercialization."

"Boeing said a $1.7 billion Federal Aviation Administration research-and-development contract it was awarded early last year is being managed out of Oklahoma City."

Awesome job Bullrider, it just dosen't get more obvious than that. We have witnessed astounding gains on expectation of news. We have not even begun the tornado phase of this technology development life cycle yet. Cspace is on the verge of completion, in that image space scalability is the last piece of the puzzle. Once this technology goes mainstream with all the multi-billion markets, there will be no stopping the pps. We have won the lottery, so to speak.
