World's thinnest 3D image created for the first time

This is said to be the thinnest 3D image in the world, meaning we will feel closer to the world in the videos.

A team of scientists at RMIT University in Melbourne has revealed a “very thin” 3D image that makes us feel closer to the world of movies than we think.

Nano 3D images are created using a simple, direct laser system.

This hologram was developed by a team of Chinese and Australian researchers and is dubbed the “world’s thinnest”, at just 25 nanometers. It is 1,000 times thinner than a human hair and can be seen with the naked eye, without the need for 3D glasses.

This technology has the potential to bring us closer to having 3D displays in everyday electronics. Imagine what you could see and do if you had a pop-up 3D shape to play with, instead of a traditional 2D image on your screen.

“Our nano holograms are created using a direct laser system, which is simple and fast. This makes our design suitable for large-scale use and mass production,” said Professor Min Gu, RMIT University in Melbourne.

The team's ambition is to shrink the pixels on the hologram and develop a thin, rigid film that can be placed on top of an LCD screen to allow 3D content to be displayed. If this happens, 3D images could appear on consumer devices and eventually take us into the world of Avatar.

While the resulting hologram is truly a masterpiece of science fiction, it will be some time before it is mass-integrated into electronic devices. Who knows, in the time it takes Professor Gu and his team to perfect the technology, an even better 3D imaging solution may emerge.
