Chinese 3D

Has anyone heard anything about a 3D movie being projected
overhead onto a dome in Shanghai, China? It apparently is 
awesome and people can stand anywhere in the dome and look
up and see 3D moving imagery no matter where they are 
standing. The original cameras and projection set-up is reported
to have been created by a Swiss company at great costs for 
this special venue. Please pass along anything about this one-
of-a-kind 3D theatre.

I know there was some pre-T2 3D testing done with a screen on
the ceiling. Also Ridefilm Corp's future Las Vegas simulator 
ride will be with IMAX goggles on an OMIMAX screen.

(Don't talk about holograms, antacids or extra long sentences.)

Looking forward to being enlightened,
Lawrence
