Steven L Smith has a broad research and development background in stereoscopic and holographic imaging technology. He received his Bachelor Science Degree, in Cinema and Photography from Southern Illinois University. Steven received his start in Holographic imaging in 1979 – 1982 under the supervision of Prof. Tung H Jeong at Lake Forest College, where he also taught workshops in Mastering for Embossed holography. From 1983 – 1997 Steven Smith headed up the first Professional Holographic Imaging Studio in the US located in Chicago IL, The Lasersmith Inc. During his Tenure at The Lasersmith many Firsts in the Holographic imaging market were achieved, the first roll out of registered embossed and printed tags for Sears MainFrame clothing line 12- 18 million tags annually, patented Injected moulded compound refractive – diffractive elements. Developed and patented a high speed multi-camera capture system for full color holographic stereograms. During his research studies in stereographic imaging systems at the MIT Media Lab under Dr. Stephen A Benton, Director of the Spatial Imaging Group from 1997 – 2004, Steven Smith developed a novel head tracked autostereoscopic display that tracked multiple viewers in all three axis X, Y and Z with real-time rendering of the stereo views at 1280 x 1024. Another accomplishment, The first optical translation head full parallax full color holographic printer was realized. More details…

INFO for cooperation!?
My name is Bozidar Svetek. Past thirty years develop system VISUAL MUSIC http://www.si21.com/interakt
I wonder whether a possible cooperation in this field in the direction of VISUAL HOLOGRAM MUSIC!

Bonjour Steve,
Fantastique, hope to hear from you soon.
Serge
Hey Serge, if this is you, I just wanted to say hello and hope that you are well. Remember me, we met many years ago at JOJO’s Steakhouse when you were chaufeurring for A-1, and you lived on Riverside. I remember you fondly, and just wanted to say hello and hope life has been kind to you. If this is you…you can email me at orchidance3@aol.com Peace and all good thingsZZZZZZZ!
Patricia
I’m not surprised that someone else is looking for Serge who was, and hopefully still is, a great guy. He and I used to drive for A-1 where I’d hear a fair amount about his holographic activities. I also wish we could have parted ways on a better note, so if anyone knows where to find him please let me know at spinproctor@aol.com
Take ‘em at ease,
Your pal,
John Newcomb
