Intellectual Ventures is soliciting holographic display + capture ideas
from the LinkedIn Holography group
Folks,
The firm Intellectual Ventures ( www.intven.com ) is a well-known licensor, developer, and aggregator of patents in a variety of fields. From time to time, they solicit ideas from top-notch inventors. I have been asked to spread the word that IV released a Request for Invention ("RFI") pertaining to holographic 3-D display, capture, and processing.
The boundaries of what IV means by "holographic" is explained in their RFI; essentially, there is a bias towards systems that employ diffraction. However, interesting high-quality non-diffractive autostereo displays are also being considered.

If you're interested, your experience will probably be reviewed by the IV team. I am under the impression that the sign of a successful next step is that you might be asked to enter into an agreement, regarding how compensation (payment) works.
I will post a similar note in the Non-Glasses 3-D Displays group soon.
