Except for parallax. If you move your head at all, the overlay no longer lines up with the background. Could maybe be solved with eye-tracking software in the camera. (Is there a camera in the display? Or is it one of those stupid up-the-nose cams on the keyboard?)
- Museums and exhibishion halls/events
This might be about the only useful application.
- Windows with smart features.
See above about parallax, but eye-tracking won't solve it for multiple viewers at a time.
- could be used in an ATC tower
Parallax, again.
The best use for a transparent display is so you can show what's being displayed and the faces of the actors looking at it in the same shot. Even that's questionable because it makes your set designer look like an idiot. (Ditto for those transparent whiteboards that seem to be all the rage on TV shows.)
