This Small Business Innovation Research Phase II project is to develop a new computer peripheral: a Volumetric Image Display system that displays 3D images in a real space. Many viewers can walk around the display and see the 3D images from omni-directions without special glasses. The overall business objectives corresponding to this project are to develop and implement the technologies required for building the VID product, to demonstrate the market viability, and to complete the financial preparation for Phase III. In order to speed up commercialization, a Basic Model product will be completed in year 1. It will feature a flexible configuration and good specifications to address the initial need in various fields. Marketing will then begin in year 2 to test market and seek business alliances, using the Basic Model as a demonstration platform as well as an evaluation product. A low-volume manufacturing procedure will be established to support initial sales. In year 2, techniques that further improve product color and gray scale will be developed and demonstrated. We already have a Phase III funding commitment. Based on the demonstrated market viability and technical readiness, a new business plan will be prepared to raise additional funding commitments to complete the finance preparation for Phase III. The marketing goals also include obtaining at least one development contract from a major corporation, as part of the Phase III finance. Market analysis indicates great commercial potential in four major segments: medical, computer aided design and engineering, visual data analysis, and computer gaming.

这个小型企业创新研究第二阶段的项目是开发一种新的计算机外围设备：在真实空间中显示3D图像的体积图像显示系统。许多观众可以在显示器周围走动，不戴特殊眼镜就能看到全方位的3D图像。与本项目相对应的总体业务目标是开发和实施构建VID产品所需的技术，展示市场可行性，并完成第三阶段的财务准备。为了加快商业化，将在第一年完成基本模型产品。它将具有灵活的配置和良好的规格，以满足各个领域的初步需求。然后将在第二年开始营销，测试市场并寻求商业联盟，使用基本模型作为演示平台和评估产品。将建立小批量生产程序，以支持最初的销售。在第二年，将开发和演示进一步改善产品颜色和灰度级的技术。我们已经有了第三阶段的资金承诺。基于证明的市场可行性和技术准备，将编制一份新的业务计划，以筹集额外的资金承诺，以完成第三阶段的财务准备。营销目标还包括从一家大公司获得至少一份开发合同，作为第三阶段融资的一部分。市场分析显示，在四个主要领域具有巨大的商业潜力：医疗、计算机辅助设计和工程、视觉数据分析和计算机游戏。
