Hunter's comment

"The Looking Glass is the first desktop holographic display designed for 3D creators. No VR or AR headgear required."

This is an awesome gadget that uses light field and volumetric technologies.

Using this gadget, you can for real communicate with the virtual; world

This product is mainly for 3d creators

By using HoloPlay Unity SDK Looking Glass apps are made

By the help of Model and Animation Importer App, It can import 3D model and animations in OBJ, FBX, STL and gLTF format

App Library with many holographic apps

You can even get an exporter from Maya, Zbrush, Blender, Tinkercad, and Solidworks

You can use it in groups without any need of headset

It comes in 2 sizes

You can share your work with others using this new method

This I think is must for any graphics artist out there, great hunt @mdshra this gadget can be game changing for any artist out there.

PROS :

Provides you a 3D sense of what you are making without wearing any head gear or VR devices
See while designing - It allows you to see what you are making even if you are not done yet
On the scale measurements - the 3D hologram of what you are making has accurate measurements on what you have done in the computer.

CONS :

Needs two output sources in order to work (USB -C for power and HDMI for the display) this will take up much needed input sources if your plugs are limited.

Overall for about 399$ I don't think I can say anything bad about it as it is a good product for that price and is very useful for the artist who are willing to test out a new product.

Pros:
Good for visualizing not just product design but also 3d models from all angles.

Cons:
You can't interact with the model. There is another hologram or "lightfield" machine that lets you actually interact with the model. I can't remember the name but it was already hunted on Steemhunt.
