He was a 3D visionary way ahead of his time:

"In 1949, Fresco was commissioned by Hollywood producers Jack Moss and
Irving Yergin to develop technology for viewing three-dimensional images
without the use of eye glasses.[37] The technology developed was for both
theater audiences and home television.[37] Novel in its simplicity, it was
relatively cheap and required little modification of the projection
systems used at the time. The technology also had prospects for being used
in medical x-ray units and surgery.[37] It was demonstrated in the summer
of 1949 in California.[38]"
