The technology is said to fit even in small devices. Just as some Sony camcorders (and others) can project their 2D video images onto a white wall or screen, this tech could be used in smart phones or tablets to project 2D or, they say, even 3D content. I do not yet understand how the technology works, but there is evidence that multiple companies are working on bringing this tech to smart phones and tablets within 1 to 2 years.
The LX7 is a popular “enthusiast’s compact” camera known for its good low light performance, modest camera size and excellent image quality for a small sensor camera. 43Rumors says the LX8 is coming in July and will feature 4k video – now that is very cool!

Beautifully done 3D images of jet fighters and other aircraft (and other topics too). Update: The photographer says he did not take these photos but used existing 2D photos and converted them to 3D – and he really did a very good job of it too.
Most are in red/cyan (glasses) format but some are also in cross-eyed (no glasses needed) format.
Some of my example photos shot with the Olympus XZ-2 camera. So far, very pleased with this little “enthusiast’s compact” as it appears to do what I wanted it for, very well.
