Lenovo is testing glasses-free computers with a ring controller.
www.theverge.comLenovo’s new ThinkBook 3D Laptop Concept and Hybrid Dimensional 34-inch Curved Monitor Concept, announced at Mobile World Congress 2025, use directional backlighting and head tracking to simultaneously show 2D and 3D content without glasses. An accompanying AI Ring concept can be worn to control them with gesture-based spatial controls.
It sounds like Leia’s tech, but Lenovo reps would not confirm during my short demo.
Maybe 3D is coming back? (I doubt it.)

There are plenty of 3D movies still being released on Bluray. And 3D is still a thing in home-theatre projectors. The content is definitely there. And the tech has gotten better aswell. It just never caught on. Because people would rather have 8k on a 30 inch TV.
