3-D video cube
The present invention is a novel, high resolution, color, three-dimensional (3-D) volumetric display system for dynamic images—the video cube. The video cube consists of an air-tight glass cube filled with a gas mixture and multiple planes of thin wires arranged in alternating orthogonal layers. These wires may be set at voltage potentials capable of producing a glow discharge at the intersection of pairs of wires. Using a computer capable of storing dynamic image data and electronic controllers capable of energizing pairs of wires appropriately at the proper time 3-D dynamic images may be formed from multiple glows between excited wire pairs. The video cube may be used to display complex real-time information from computers and other digital processors with high accuracy for unlimited number of simultaneous unaided observers.
