Sony is demoing a 3D display at the Digital Contents Expo that takes place in Tokyo right now, and today I went there and made a few pictures and shot a video of the device, too. Two of the 360 stereoscopic displays were displayed to the general public, and the tech is pretty impressive.

The specs aren’t that great (96×128 resolution, 24-bit color palette), but this is just a first prototype.

Here’s how Sony thinks we one day could use the display:
