3-D displays that don't require you to wear glasses are a devilishly tricky problem. But Microsoft's Applied Sciences Group has created a novel solution, in the form of a TV with a specially shaped lens that adjusts the image you see, depending on your viewing angle.

The TV knows where you are thanks to motion tracking software that follows exactly where your head is. Then, it calibrates a 3-D image to that specific viewing angle, and beams it through a thin, wedge-shaped lens that doubles as the TV screen. (Images are beamed into the side edge of the lens, which allows the whole assembly to be far more compact.) So far, the system can track and accommodate up to four people at a time.
