This latest project, featured on the Mastodon account and described in a YouTube video, takes a new approach to volumetric imaging. Unlike traditional holograms, which use a one-dimensional strip to create 2D images, Brown’s display uses a rotating 2D panel to project 3D images.
This setup creates a physical illusion that mimics the holographic effect where every pixel of Doom graphics “exists” in 3D space.
Brown initially targeted a rotation speed of 300 rpm for smooth images, but found that higher rpms were needed to achieve the desired clarity, especially when shooting on film. The Mastodon video features not only voxel Doom but also other complex 3D visuals, including moon rovers, skulls, and dinosaur heads.
