Abstract: The invention generally relates to the display of images viewable from any direction and devices therefor. In some aspects, the invention provides an apparatus for displaying a hologram-like image. The apparatus includes an inverted, truncated pyramid bearing semi-reflective facets visible from outside of the apparatus in all horizontal directions. A base frame supports the truncated pyramid, houses an imaging system, and provides image source surfaces that display images beneath each of the facets to be reflected by each of the facets.

Abstract: The invention generally provides a transparent projection screen material with sound dampening properties and methods for using a screen to manipulate light and sound. Methods and materials of the invention can improve live sound and sound recordings by inhibiting ambient sound from reaching listeners or microphones and reducing feedback.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to holographic posters and computer controlled systems for communicating information. The invention provides a computer-based holographic poster device that displays holographic images and videos for interacting with interested users via, for example, their motions and gestures or their personal devices such as smartphones. A holographic poster device has a body such as a pedestal supporting a display area (e.g., a few feet above the floor) and is operable to make a holographic image appear in the display area.

Abstract: The invention generally relates to accessories for portable electronic devices that offer a screen for displaying the contents of a display of an electronic device. The invention provides, for an electronic device, an accessory that includes a reflective screen including a material such as a beam splitter to re-display the device display. In certain aspects, the invention provides a reflective screen for use with a computing device that has a reflective material and a mechanism to hold the screen above a horizontal surface at an angle.
