The walk-thru fog screen is a novel and intriguing
method for forming a superior quality physically penetrable dry fog display.
It is a break-through technology, literally! The key features are that the screen
is flat, enabling high-quality projections, and walk-thru is possible. The
fog screen feels like nothing and does not make things wet. It creates a magical
effect as if the imges are floating in thin air. This work has international
patents pending.
The basic components of the screen are a laminar, non-turbulent airflow, and
a thin fog screen (or any particles) injected into and inside a laminar flow.
Created this way, the fog screen is an internal part of the laminar airflow,
and remains thin, crisp, and protected from turbulence. When the screen is formed,
images can be either rear- or front-projected onto it. The screen can be translucent
(as in the images below) or fully opaque. Our current fog screen prototype already
proves the operating principle with excellent results. The quality, size, and
other features of the screen will be enhanced in the coming weeks.
