So?

So?

Ideas from the Quick Dive sessions

• better readability of texts (sharper characters, e.g. on computer monitor).

• useful for displaying mathematical derivations• in medical sciences, e.g. recordings of operations• high resolution microscopic images (zoom in)• geographical information• more data on the screen, e.g. 4 graphs instead of

one.• CAD/CAM images• 3D (image split in two)
