Looking Glass Unveils 27-Inch Holographic 3D Monitor With 5K Resolution And Priced At $10,000

Looking Glass has announced its most powerful 3D display to date, measuring 27 inches and boasting 5K resolution, capable of producing three-dimensional images that can be viewed by multiple people at the same time without headsets, glasses, or any other special equipment.

The monitor is powered directly by the iPad, meaning it is compact and low cost to operate – around 35% cheaper than its predecessor. The new 27-inch display is a major milestone in Looking Glass’ mission to advance 3D experiences that are more than just one person and don’t require headsets. The monitor is about 1 inch thick and offers 16 inches of virtual depth. It projects 45 to 100 perspectives at once, delivering a full 3D experience across a 53° viewing angle, enough for shared viewing. 5K visual fidelity reproduces depth, material properties, transparency and lighting effects that are as close as possible to real-world objects.

The device is aimed at developers and enterprise customers. Images can be created in Unity on a PC and deployed to an iPad; Blender, Unreal Engine, and the WebXR interface are also supported. With a 1-inch-thick frame, a VESA mount, and a tabletop stand, the monitor can be installed in any environment and anywhere, including high-traffic areas. 3D images are controlled through apps that can be deployed via TestFlight or uploaded to the App Store. Looking Glass aims to establish a dialogue with stakeholders and help them explore complex concepts in engineering, biotechnology, and design. The 27-inch monitor is priced at $10,000, but pre-orders by April 30 will reduce that to $8,000; shipping will begin in June 2025. Looking Glass’s earlier models include a 16-inch monitor for $4,000, which is also 25% off until April 30 while supplies last.

Looking Glass solutions are based on Light Field Display (LFD) technology, a type of 3D display technology that projects a “field” of light beams from different angles, creating the effect of depth in an image. As you move your head, you naturally see new angles, as if the display were revealing additional details as you explore the image. The company was founded in 2014; in 2018, it released its first developer display; in 2020, it launched its first personal holographic display, the Looking Glass Portrait; in the summer of 2022, the company introduced a large 65-inch display and the Looking Glass Blocks platform for publishing holographic images over the Internet. The company has 40 employees.
