Maybe a practical 3D TV could be designed as a large transparent bowl like a fish tank, with a magnetic field suspending a lattice of tiny metallic particles, with colour-changing lasers scanning these and illuminating them a-la article.

Or the particles could be suspended vertically by microscopically thin transparent optic fibres.
