Thanks for your comments. What you mention is indeed a problem, and that is the non-uniform scattering of light in a droplet of water. Well, it turns out that this problem can indeed be turned to an advantage. You can use this to produce walls that are only visible from one direction but not the other, and this is indeed a good way for producing "opaque" objects, not "translucent" objects as you see in our demo. If you are interested, I'd be glad to have a discussion with you about these matters, mressl@gmail.com.

Submission + - Mixed Reality 3D Volumetric Projector (youtube.com)

Gortu writes: "We are describing and demonstrating a 3D Volumetric Projector, in short words: a device that enables mixed reality.

The 3D projector has very poor quality, we just have 10 rotational voxels (as we are using only 10 regular LCD projectors), but is proof of concept for developing a commercial solution."

Submission + - Help Rename the Department of Homeland Security 2

Hugh Pickens writes writes: "James Fallows writes tongue in cheek that U.S. Department of Fear, led by Secretary of Fear Malcolm P. Stag III, is running a poll. What should we re-name the Department of Homeland Security? "Possibilities include Department of ScaredyCatLand Security, reflecting the prevailing mentality of an era, and Department of Fatherland Security, to make us sound strong," writes Fallows. "There are many more to choose from, plus you can write in your own nominees. But act now, because the polls close in two days.""
