DisplAir

A technological breakthrough
Created in 2010, DisplAir offers a true breakthrough in image display and natural interface technology. The DisplAir device projects images onto an ‘air screen’ that can be seen, heard, smelled and touched. Images can be easily configured through touching the images, allowing objects to be moved or played with, and even enabling drawing and virtual modeling.

Bringing magic to users
By providing users with a truly magical experience, DisplAir sets for itself the goal of enhancing brand communications, cultural creation, event experience, interior and exterior design, gaming experience as well as a range of educational and medical activities.

Born in Russia, growing globally
DisplAir is a resident of two of Russia’s leading tech hubs – Skolkovo and Kazan’s IT Park. The company cooperates with leading international tech players and brands as well as with a range of organizations in related fields.

Corporate social responsibility
A totally safe technology, DisplAir is energy efficient and causes no harm to the environment. The startup’s social responsibility has been demonstrated by its support of children’s sports and knowledge sharing through presentations and lectures as well as free training courses on physics and software.
