This paper reports comparative study of optical components to form life-scale aerial image formed with AIRR (aerial imaging by retro-reflection). We assembled four life-size aerial devices that surrounds a user. We found that locating prism-type retro-reflector above the light source and the beam splitter gives brightness and high contrast.
