Believe it or not, these work great. They are acoustic chambers that focus the sound from an iPhone such that you can turn your iPhone into a nice “amplified” sound system without an amplifier.
The company that designs and sells the acoustic chambers is Simply Amplified. They outsource the actual 3D printing to a 3D print service firm: http://www.growit3d.com/
These are shown being demo’d at the 2013 CES.

A volumetric 3D display is a display that exists in more than 2-dimensions – it literally has volume. Here’s an early version that for now is mostly 2D but a future version will include a volume:
Displair LLC is a Russia-based firm.
It is hard to tell from the photo what is going on so I will try to explain. Here, a humidifier like device is creating a translucent wall on to which interactive video images (computer generated) are projected. The system also includes sensors that identify hand movements so that, as shown her by their marketing rep, can interact with the projected objects.
A future version (quite a ways out yet) will expand this planar version in to a volume.
Joutec Company Limited showed off this small 3D camera that links over Wi-Fi to your smart phone, providing true stereoscopic 3D capability for smart phones.
This really works too! And when available, it will be very inexpensive.
And I know its durable because I clumsily dropped it on the floor and it kept on working great!
Samsung makes some amazing cameras – most impressive to me is their ease of use and the superb readability of their camera manuals.
