FreeBSD on futuristic screens

People would soon realise that having a transparent monitor would have little use. You would have to place it in front of a very blank (preferably white) wall, to be able to make out any of the text on it.

I didn't watch it all the way through, but at the end he says "potentially transparent".
 
Can we ever expect to be able use these sort of displays with FreeBSD?

Yes, and a totally redundant question if I may say. I skimmed through the awful AI generated video. It's a normal 2D monitor. We've been using 2D monitors on computers since 50 years ago. It is the job of graphics card to run it, not the OS. Over other side of the cable it is the job of the driver/upscaler board inside the monitor to drive the panel, regardless if it's a 80s plasma LCD or 2030s transparent element panel.

What you may not be able to run on FreeBSD of near-future tech are 3D displays such as volumetric displays that are used for showing static 3D content. Those do not run a standard video signal, they're not monitors but visualization devices and FreeBSD is probably not the target for anyone there.
