There was a system called Bugeye which was marketed some years back using fresnel lenses in front of 3 LCD monitors but i believe it went out of business due to lack of interest.

    "The platform also delivers privacy, where viewing the image without being seated in front of the lens is not possible. The intended viewer sits in front of the display and the image is concentrated on them"
