Hydrogen One Media Machine: RED, a leading manufacturer of professional digital cinema cameras, has announced that it will develop the world's first holographic Android smartphone, which will be released sometime next year.
It will be released under the name Hydrogen One Media Machine, and will be a standalone, unlocked smartphone powered by the mobile operating system Android of Google. The company promises a new style experience: "look around" through your mobile phone.
The device will feature a professional 5,7-inch holographic display that will feature nanotechnology and is designed to seamlessly transition between 2D and 3D content, for interactive gaming and multi-view holographic content.
Landscapes and portraits will be supported by the Hydrogen One Media Machine, which will support RED's H4V (Hydrogen 4-View) content, stereo 3D content, and 2D and 3D VR, MR and AR.
In terms of sound quality, RED will incorporate a proprietary H3O algorithm into the Android OS of Hydrogen One, which will turn stereo sound into extended multidimensional sound.
RED plans to develop Hydrogen One as the first future multi-dimensional system in a series the company calls Hydrogen System. The Hydrogen One is said to be the control center of this upcoming modular system that the company says will debut in 2018.
“The Hydrogen System incorporates a new high-speed data bus to enable a comprehensive and ever-expanding system of modular components, which will include future components for capturing higher quality images movements as well as HYDROGEN format holographic images", reports RED on press release (PDF).
The Hydrogen One Media Machine will cost 1.195 dollars in the aluminum version and 1.595 dollars for the titanium device when they are released. The device is scheduled to be released in the first quarter of 2018.
