Researchers have developed an ultra-thin 3D display with a
wide viewing angle, clear image quality and vivid display
depth. By overcoming tradeoffs that typically limit glasses-
free 3D displays, the advance could open new possibilities
for highly detailed interactive experiences in health care,
education and entertainment.

"The new display is just 28 mm thick, dramatically slimmer
than conventional directional backlight systems, which typically
exceed 500 mm," said research team leader Xu Liu, from
Zhejiang University in China. "This level of compactness,
combined with the substantial boost in resolution we
achieved, represents an important step toward making the
technology practical for real-world products."

. . .

   China again .......

   28mm is still too thick for phones - but could find
   wide use in desktop monitors and maybe big-screen TVs.

If by "28mm" you mean 28 millimeters, that's over an inch.

   Still VERY thin compared to previous tech. As I
   suggested, not good for phones but CAN be good
   for desktop monitors and maybe big-screens.

   Another few years, expect 12mm. Now we'd be
   getting there.

   The only potentially equiv tech I'd heard of was
   units that literally shot colored laser beams
   straight into each eye. Eyeball tracking tech
   is well developed so it COULD be done for at
   least a limited audience.

   But this sounds MUCH better.

How can you structurally have a display 12mm thick and two meters diagonal?

   Stiff aluminum support frame.

   Or just glue it to something stiff.

True, but the quote contrasted that 28 millimeters against (claimed) 
conventional systems of 500 millimeters (19.7 inches) thick.

So it is 17x thinner than the claimed "conventional tech".

Note that I'm only going on what was provided in the quote above, I 
have never seen (nor heard of) either of these display items.
