Looking Glass is the whole widget

A combination of advanced optics, custom electronics and a software stack designed for the creation and consumption of holographic content.

Powered by our proprietary light field technology.

At its core, the Looking Glass is powered by our proprietary light field technology, generating between 45-100 views of a 3D scene. As a result, multiple people can view full-color, dynamic, 60fps three-dimensional holograms in any of the Looking Glass displays without needing to gear up in AR/VR headsets.

Physically present holograms

On a conventional 2D display, every pixel shines with two properties: intensity and color. But the Looking Glass is different.

By adding a third property of directionality to millions of points of light, the Looking Glass can reproduce real and synthetic 3D information more realistically than anything else before.

As a viewer moves left and right, their eyes perceive stereoscopic images from different points of view, meaning that the dimensionality and also finer details like specular reflections of the real world are reproduced.

Holograms you can touch.

The second generation of Looking Glass displays (like the Looking Glass Portrait) has a reworked optical system so that the holograms are no longer “contained” in a volume. They can project in front of and behind the physical display, meaning you can literally touch these holograms.
