How It Works

This Picture (on the right) is an actual view through the LUCID-Art. You can see the subject (in this case some fruit), your hand, pencil and pencil marks all at the same time. And with the LUCID-Art's two filters, you can adjust the brightness of the image quickly and easily (see Solving the Lighting Problem section for details).

It works a lot like an art projector, except that you don't have to sit in the dark with a loud hot projector, you're not limited to working from photographs, the LUCID-Art works without electricity and it's light (1.8 LBS) and portable!

It uses the same basic principle that was used to make transparent ghosts in movies before the advent of computerized special effects and is still the way Disneyland's Haunted Mansion makes their ghost.
