Revolutionary Looking Glass 27” Light Field Display Unveiled

Brooklyn, NY - April 17, 2025 - Today, Looking Glass, the leader in light field display technology, unveiled the Looking Glass 27”, its most powerful three-dimensional display to date. The 27" is optimized for delivering immersive 3D experiences to groups simultaneously, all without headsets, glasses, or special gear. It can even be powered directly off an iPad, providing a smaller footprint and a lower cost of operation to businesses needing better ways to entertain audiences or communicate ideas and concepts. Pre-orders are now open at a 20% discount off of regional pricing.

The Looking Glass 27” marks a major milestone in the company’s mission to free 3D from the confines of headsets and single-user limits. With 5k fidelity in a thin format (just 1” thick), but producing an amazing 16" of virtual depth, the 27” display unlocks stunning multi-user 3D experiences, whether in research, training or live activations. Recent software breakthroughs even enable the displays to be powered by iPads, delivering a roughly 35% system-level cost reduction over its predecessor.

"This is a breakthrough moment for 3D," said Shawn Frayne, CEO and Co-Founder of Looking Glass. "With the new 27” display, we’ve combined major hardware and software advances to cut system costs and dramatically reduce compute requirements. It’s never been easier for developers and enterprises to build, test, and then deploy applications for their audiences in 3D.”
