Description:
A projection screen is typically made of a solid sheet or a board. There are several proposed ways to form non-solid screens of water, smoke, or fog, but usually they suffer from bad image quality if viewed near-by the screen or far off-axis from the projector. Also, they are not meant to be walk-thru. Particularly, a fog or smoke screen also tends to disperse easily. This is caused by the friction and the dynamic pressure difference between the moving screen and the surrounding stationary air, and by the turbulence created thereof.
We have presented a novel and simple method for forming a superior quality physically penetrable fog display [Rakkolainen and Palovuori 2002]. It is a break-through technology, literally!
