Abstract

Volumetric display systems, methods, and devices for generating a holographic image within an ambient atmosphere air display volume using a columnar laminar flow generation system. According to an example embodiment, a volumetric display method and system includes a columnar laminar flow generation system combining an input ambient atmosphere air flow with at least one particulate flow to generate a plurality of parallel columnar laminar atmosphere air flow streams and a plurality of parallel columnar laminar atmosphere particulate flow streams extending through an ambient atmosphere air display volume; and a laser projection system outputting a plurality of laser beams representative of the holographic image, each of the plurality of laser beams aligned to overlap a section of a single columnar laminar particulate flow within the ambient atmosphere air display volume to illuminate a target particulate flow within the respective overlapping section of the single columnar laminar particulate flow.
