PCubee: 3-D in your hand
Pcubee is a handheld cube with displays on six sides which arranges five LCD screens into a box-like shape so viewers can pick it up, watch content or play with virtual objects inside.
3-dimensional space
The problem with current 3D technology is that you can only see around images the director wants you to see. Pcubee will change people’s mind that 3-D is all about stereo and having alternating frames to help the brain perceive depth. Each display of pcube shows one perspective of an image, giving you the illusion of looking into a 3-dimensional space. This lets you choose if you want to see the front, side or even overhead view of an object. The cube also lets users interact with the images on the displays. Besides users can poke and prod objects virtually using a stylus, shake the cube, tilt it or interact with a touch screen, all while retaining the 3-D experience.
Pcubee is based on the principle called motion parallax. Motion parallax is the apparent change in position of an object depending on the distance from which it is viewed.
As the video shows, pCubee is fun and easy to use.
Killer application
