The following websites contain information pertaining to 3D volumetric displays. It looks as if Sony is 'in it to win it.' How is their Ray Modeler different from Cspace?
Obviously, full color has been achieved. It seems the common obstacles among researchers are scalability and low-costs. Who will be the first to market? Regardless of who is first, I still think 3Dicon will have their piece of the pie. Once perfected, it is unimaginable how big this technology is going to become over time!!!

Sony RayModeler, a 360-Degree Autostereoscopic Display Prototype

The following is a 3D display proposal for Nasa, by Xigen,

POTENTIAL NON-NASA COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS
The volumetric 3D display is a fundamental technological breakthrough that could change the way human being viewing complex information, thus has profound impact on the society advancement. The unique advantages of the proposed static screen volumetric 3D display technology include:
* No moving screen;
* Inherent parallel mechanism for 3D voxel addressing;
* High spatial resolution;
* Full color display is easy to implement
* Fine voxel size (at a sub-millimeter level);
* No blind spot on the display volume and the display volume can be of arbitrary shape.
* Simple and elegant system structure design;
* No special viewing glasses or any special eyewear is needed to view the 3D images;
* No image jitter affect that is associated with moving screen;
* Low-cost and low-maintenance.

The market for volumetric 3D display systems is sizable, and applications are enormous, including both military (e.g. air traffic control, battle management, space vehicle and submarine navigation, telemedicine in battle field) and commercial (e.g., 3D TV, virtual reality, computer aided design, visualization of multidimensional data, medical imaging, surgery assistance, education, scientific computing, video games, stadium displays, etc.) The 3D display systems will provide a new level of realism and literally add a new dimension to the dynamic interaction between human and the world around us.

It looks as if Xigen was able to rise to the occassion.
