Possibility of a drastic change in communication form with 'holoportation' which allows objects to appear in remote areas in real time and precisely

Microsoft's virtual information that can be created with 3D holograms in the real worldHoloLens"Can be utilized as a communication tool by utilizing it in both directions. Bi-directional 3D modeling using HoloLens "Holoportation (holoportation)"Distance" that is a barrier to communication seems to be no problem.

You can understand the magnanimity of holoportation with a single shot when you see the following movie.

"We will show you an exciting technology" Holoportation "that will change the way of communication in the near future," said Shahram Izadi of Microsoft Research.


A male suddenly appeared behind Mr. Izadi who said "Please imagine teleportation that moves instantly to thousands of miles away." It is holopotation that technology that moves things in remote areas as a 3D model in real time and it seems that moving it is called "holopotate" which is not teleportation.


"Hi, How are you feeling after holo-port?"


Here, the headset "HoloLensAttached to each other. By installing HoloLens, you will be able to see each other's figure with a hologram.


Mr. Izadi who guides the man to a corner of the room "Come on this, come on."


The chair in which the man sits is also a hologram, which is not present in the room where Mr. Izadi is.


High touch while speaking. It is tricky if it is holoportation that can accurately 3D model the position of an object in real time.


"Well, bye bye"


The man disappeared.


Holoportation is a technology that enables bidirectional exchange of 3D images using the headset HoloLens in real time. It is possible to create objects accurately and in real time as 3D models by shooting objects from the surroundings with multiple cameras placed around them.


Actually, this camera which was photographing Mr. Izadi has already installed a holoportation unit. Therefore, it was able to display 3D hologram in real time as if HoloLens was wearing.


With Holoportation you can copy 3D holograms to different places in real time.


Of course it is also possible to show yourself in front of your own eyes.


If you turn to the right, the hologram in front of you also turns to the right. You can see yourself as a figure of truth that you saw only in the "opposite world" in the mirror.


When you communicate with a family in a remote place using this holopotation it will be like this.


When I installed HoloLens, Izadi's daughter in a remote place appeared in the space in front of me. "Dad, are you fine?" "I am fine, Lilia"


Izadi asking, "What are you playing around?"


Lilya walks around the room while talking.


"When will you come back?" "I will leave soon"


"Show your toys to your daddy"


"This child is Tina, it's cute, is not it?"


"Lilia, will you climb this chair?"


"Try jumping from counting as 1, 2, 3."


Lilia who jumps at "1, 2, 3 ...... Jump!". There is little time lag.


"Thank you. Bye bye"


"This is an example of holopoint communication, holoportation can be different," Izadi said.


Holoportation can play recorded sessions. You can rewind freely and review Holoportation communication.


When approaching this quality. Other people who were not in this place can also confirm the exchange later.


Furthermore, holoportation communication can be expanded and contracted freely.


You can view the exchange on the table.


3D hologram can be confirmed from all directions at 360 degrees.


As far as the demonstration is concerned, 3D modeling is extremely natural and time lag is also extremely small. Holoportation seems to have the potential to dramatically change the form of communication in the near future.
