3D Displays

Shared immersive experiences with true depth and realism.

3D Displays

Our 3D display solutions let multiple people see and explore content with real depth - without wearing individual VR or AR headsets. Using advanced stereoscopic projection and specialist filters, these systems create a shared, experience where spatial detail, scale, and perspective come to life.

Unlike single-user VR, our 3D projection is collaborative and social, allowing groups to interact, discuss and make decisions together in real time.

What “3D” means in this context

When we say “3D displays”, we mean passive stereoscopic projection systems that produce two slightly different images – one for each eye – to create a convincing depth effect. We use Infitec passive 3D filters and lightweight glasses for exceptional colour fidelity, combined with high-quality projectors and specialist screens optimised for stereo content.

This approach:

  • Works for groups of any size

  • Keeps users comfortable – no heavy headsets, no hygiene issues, no motion sickness

  • Maintains maximum image brightness and clarity compared to many active systems

Key features of our 3D display solutions

  • True depth and spatial awareness - Perfect for complex visual data, models, and environments

  • Multiple viewer capability - Everyone sees the same 3D view simultaneously

  • High-quality projection - Long-life LEDlight engines (up to 30,000 hours, maintenance-free)

  • Infitec passive 3D technology - Best-in-class colour accuracy and image quality

  • GeoBox hardware processing - Seamless image warping, blending, and signal management without a PC

  • Scalable solutions - From small meeting rooms to multi-projector immersive spaces

  • Professional-grade screens - Optimised for stereo projection, built to AVIXA/ANSI standards

Applications for 3D Displays

3D projection is used wherever understanding depth, spatial relationships and scale is critical:

  • Architecture & Construction - Revit/Twinmotion walkthroughs, design review meetings, client presentation

  • Engineering & Manufacturing - CAD model visualisation, product development, digital twins

  • Healthcare - Endoscopic output, surgical training, anatomy visualisation

  • Education & Research - STEM subjects, scientific visualisation, virtual labs

  • Simulation & Training - Flight and vehicle simulation, military training, industrial skills training

  • Entertainment & Attractions - Immersive theatre, interactive exhibitions, themed experiences

Benefits of 3D projection over headsets and flat displays

  • Collaborative - No isolation; teams can share the same view and interact in real time

  • Comfortable - Lightweight glasses, no motion sickness, no hygiene concerns

  • Cost-effective at scale - No need for expensive individual headsets

  • Natural engagement - Full eye contact and body language possible during sessions

  • Long-term reliability - Professional projection systems built for continuous use
