Its Director of Research Microsoft Mr. Shahram Izadi presented a demonstration of the latest HoloLens innovation. Holoportation allows the user to appear as if they existed in real time, anywhere in the world.
Η picture is captured by 3D cameras placed around the space. They are then edited together, compressed and transmitted automatically. So anyone with the right equipment can see them and interact with them. What could this mean?
Hololens Holoportation: Virtual teleportation and interaction with someone else in any part of the world.
The device except from appearance real-time avatars will enable the viewing of even previous interactions.
"Φανταστείτε να μπορείτε να κάνετε teleport από το ένα μέρος στο άλλο", ανέφερε ο Izadi. Λοιπόν, αν είστε ιδιοκτήτης ενός HolοLens, σύντομα θα μπορούσατε να κάνετε.
It could well be the next generation of Skype to interact with distant family members, friends or whatever you think.
So far, however, this technology is not released and HoloLens is still available for 3000 dollars only for developers.
Watch the presentation video and imagine what the future brings us:
