Japan’s National Institute of Information and Communications (NICT) and JVC Kenwood have developed a 200-inch glasses-free 3D display, which is being touted as the world’s largest glasses-free 3D display to date.

The display—that weighs 1,100 pounds—is created using 57 projectors, each turned to specifically display uniform levels of brightness and color levels.

A condenser lens focuses the light to sharpen the images, and a diffuser film is also used to smooth the transitions between different viewing angles.

The glasses-free 3D display has a viewing range of 13 degrees, unlike ordinary displays that have viewing ranges of 180 degrees. This means that if you look from the right and left edges, the perspective of the picture on screen is different.

Japanese researchers see the technology being used in design applications and digital signage, such as billboard advertisements.
