Vermeer, the new interactive holographic screen of Microsoft

Applying the familiar optical illusion of the game mirascope and using parabolic mirrors, the new 360-degree screen turns tiny objects into 3D holograms floating in the air.


Indeed, the best of all is that the user can interact with what he sees, after Vermeer detects the movement of fingers through integrated infrared sensor, or alternatively using technology Kinect.
