A modular smartphone under development by RED, a high-performance film camera manufacturerHydrogen One"Was released at the event organized by RED. The prototype Hydrogen One seems to be a deka that makes you feel the possibility of the world's first holographic display power and the high performance camera ecosystem created with module parts.

Dieter Bohn of The Verge who came to the Hollywood area of ​​Los Angeles, USA to participate in the touch & try event of RED's "Hydrogen One".


It seems it was an event venue like this kind of factory.


Hydrogen One for touch & try placed on the table.


On the back is a red camera with a 2 eye camera similar to the traditional prototype.


And aspects. However, it is said that Hydrogen One prototype which is close to the product version is not allowed to shoot the display surface.


This seems to be related to the mechanism of holographic display "4 view (view · view)" which is a big feature of Hydrogen One. In the venue, I was able to actually experience two types of 4 view images with two front cameras + holographic display, and also experienced video chat in the holographic state where each other is 3D displayed.


In Hands-on movies by YouTuber's MKBHD (Marques Brownlee), the display surface of the previous Hydrogen One was released. Therefore, there seems to be possibility that a new mechanism is introduced.

A 5.7 inch size holographic display with 2560 × 1440 resolution can easily switch between 2D and 3D display. Amazon'sFire PhoneAlthough it is a workmanship to make evolution feel even compared with past smartphones equipped with 3D display technology, it is an impression of the expression "I will not highly evaluate Hydrogen One on this display itself".


Hydrogen One with a 5.7 inch display is a smart phone that is bigger than the iPhone 8 Plus.


The texture also seems reasonable.

The patents of the modular system that RED applied can be confirmed in the following articles.

It seems that "camera sensor + lens" module is also planned. Fujifilm, Canon, Nikon, Leica, etc. are assumed to be combined with lenses for single lenses of camera manufacturers.


The expensive Hydrogen One, which is expensive as aluminum model for $ 1195 (about 133,000 yen) and titanium model as $ 1595 (about 177,000 yen), is not suitable for users considering use as a general smartphone.


However, for a very limited number of users seeking the best camera experience, such as the RED series, Hydrogen One and the ecosystem produced by the module kit may be the only one that has no other alternative Bohn says.


Although it was not mentioned in the movie, Hydrogen One is equipped with a USB Type - C port, a stereo speaker, and a headphone jack. Also, according to participants in the venue, it seems to have a surround function like Dolby called "A3D" sound.


Usage of general smartphone such as telephone function and Internet function is complete omission, high price smart phone "Hydrogen One" made for niche market named holographic display & camera system module will be released in August 2018 It has been.
