Looking Glass Ships Its Latest Spatial Displays

Brooklyn, NY – Aug 8, 2024 – The hologram company, Looking Glass, announced today that its new Looking Glass 16” and 32” Spatial Displays have begun shipping to customers worldwide, while the Looking Glass Go will begin shipping this month. The handheld Go is designed for consumers who want to enjoy their 2D and spatial photos in stunning 3D with friends and family. The larger format 16” and 32” displays bring life-like, headset-free immersion to groups of professionals who demand cutting-edge 3D visualization for developing, presenting, and interacting with 3D digital images, video and applications in real time. 

"Today, we’re not just starting to ship a brand new generation of spatial displays; we’re entering a new phase of spatial computing,” said Shawn Frayne, co-founder and CEO of Looking Glass.

"Our goal has always been to put holograms in the hands of everyone. Over the years we’ve gotten closer to this goal, like when we worked with incredible companies like Pixar to bring holographic characters into the real world, or when we pushed the future of spatial telecommunications with NVIDIA Research. Today we’re taking an even bigger step by bringing the power of headset-free holograms to individuals and enterprises with all sizes of Looking Glass spatial displays. There’s never been a better time to make the leap from the flat world of today’s apps, media and memories into a richer, more lifelike world of 3D holograms that you can experience together with others. I promise it’s a lot easier than you might think. See you there in the future.”
