A space-time holographic metasurface antenna generating a 3D flying saucer hologram. A single-color wave is directed inside a winding waveguide and extracted into free space by small 2D slots.

By capturing not just the shape of light but also its timing and color, researchers can provide more detailed, dynamic 3D images.
