A maker called Ancient has built a multi-view 3D volumetric display using a laser projector, an array of flat mirrors, and an ultrasonic mist generator. The mirrors split the projector output into multiple viewpoints, each redirected into a fog bank to create a 3D hologram-like effect. The narrow viewing angle of mist-based projection is exploited as a feature, allowing different angles to carry distinct image data. The result is a high-resolution volumetric image, though edges appear fuzzy. The project is currently a demo rather than a full tutorial, with software likely based on the creator's earlier multivox project.
