| 1. A three-dimensional hologram display system, comprising:
a projector device comprising multiple, simultaneously-operable projectors for projecting image components, where each image
component is one half of a stereo image, such that when two corresponding halves of a stereo image converge upon the display
medium, they form a full stereogram;
a display medium for displaying an image from the projector device as a holographic image, such that a viewer can view the
holographic image from multiple view points, whereby when the holographic image is projected upon the display medium, a viewer
can view different aspects of the holographic image from different angles.
