Three-dimensional display for smart home device

Abstract:

A presentation device for use with a computing device including a display device and an audio output. The presentation device includes a body member defining an interior volume and at least a first opening. The body member further includes a partially reflective and partially transmissive medium. The body member is configured to receive anamorphically-distorted imagery that is displayed by the display device, which has a predefined arrangement with the body member. The body member is further configured to reconstitute the anamorphically-distorted imagery as a three-dimensional illusion that appears within the interior volume. The body member is further configured to guide audio from the audio output to exit the body member through the first opening.
