Amazon is reportedly working on four new hardware devices including two smartphones, an audio-only streaming device, and a set-top box, according to the WSJ. One of the two smartphones is said to feature a 3D display.

One of the devices is a high-end smartphone featuring a screen that allows for 3-D images without glasses, these people said. Using retina-tracking technology, images on the smartphone would seem to float above the screen like a hologram and appear three-dimensional at all angles, they said. Users may be able to navigate through content using just their eyes, two of the people said.

According to the site's sources, Amazon's hardware projects are being developed insides its Lab126 facility in Cupertino, California. The efforts are dubbed Project A, B, C, and D or collectively as the Alphabet Projects.

Amazon reportedly plans to release these devices in the coming months; however, the projects could be canceled or delayed due to unforeseen obstacles.
