REAL LIFE SUPERPOWER: This Kickstarter Project Wants To Help You See Through Objects

  x You have successfully emailed the post. Jon Rodriguez addresses human vision as a problem. We only see in two dimensions -- what would 3D vision be like?

His Kickstarter project, Voxel Vision, aims to design a system that lets humans see "within and behind solid objects within any virtual world."

In a practical sense, Rodriguez writes that his system could enable surgeons to "see the entire interior volume of a patient," police officers to "see within rooms and behind walls to avoid an ambush," and cell biologists could even "visualize the entire interior of a cell."

It sounds like black magic, but Rodriguez has already raised more than $3,500 of his $6,000 goal. (A donation of $3,000 will fetch you the Voxel Vision hardware before it lands on the general market.)

Rodriguez dissects what his project is all about and how it works in much more (complex) detail on the Kickstarter page and on this Quora page.
