Holography 3D Display aims to solve the problems with current 3D technology by developing a holographic 3D display layer that can be integrated into existing LCD screens. This new display would provide a 120 degree viewing angle, allow movement while watching without losing the 3D effect, and more depth perception compared to current 3D TVs. The company plans to partner with LCD manufacturers and license their technology as modules to be integrated into TV production. They have the core technology developed and aim to complete prototypes, patent filings, and raise $3 million in seed funding and $6 million in a Series A round to bring the product to market by 2013.
