Abstract
A 3-dimensional motion picture display is achieved by raster scanning a beam of collimated light from each of a plurality of light sources into a viewing space. The system is essentially a time based ray tracer, and can thus simulate objects both behind, on, and in front of the physical locations of the light emanating from the sources.
