Apple Patented A 3D Display And Imaging System, Just Like The One In Star Wars
Story Highlights
Here’s the summary from BusinessInsider.com:
The US Patent and Trademark Office published an Apple patent for a 3D display and imaging system, reports Patently Apple (see link below).
The device would allow a user to interact with holographic images or project their hands onto a screen to manipulate virtual objects.
Don’t get your hopes up though — Apple has plenty of patents on things that don’t exist (and will likely never exist).
