  • Alex Kipman wants to create a new reality - one that puts people, not devices, at the center of everything. With HoloLens, the first fully untethered holographic computer, Kipman brings 3D holograms into the real world, enhancing our perceptions so that we can touch and feel digital content. In this magical demo, explore a future without screens, where technology has the power to transport us to worlds beyond our own. (Featuring Q&A with TED's Helen Walters)

      Sorry, you are correct, it is AR. However they are not holograms. A hologram is not a hologram just because it is 3D. What makes a hologram is any 3D representation that needs no intermediate device. A 3d image illusion on a 2D plane is a hologram, the moment you need glasses to see said 3D illusion, it is no longer a hologram, it is just AR or VR. This is the definition of a hologram. A hologram must be visible with the unaided eye.

      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography
      Ok I still say that a hologram must not include any glasses, lens or camera to be seen. This is what I was taught in physics. That being said, I think they are using an actual hologram, only inside the glasses. They are using a glass medium close to the eye, simmilar to Google Glass. They just shape the hologram to match the environment. If it was scaled, 10 people would all see the same thing from 1 source. So yes I guess it's a hologram. I got a bit confused by the fact that nobody else saw it, but it's much more logical to keep a hologram at a very small scale. You would need large humansize glass mediums like the one used in Tupac's holograms.

      Think about it this way. A hologram is in of itself a 3D illusion and must be seen as such without any special equipement.
      If holography could include any glasses then I 3D movies could be considered holography, which they are not, of course.

    • @sisterfister698
      @sisterfister698 Před 3 lety +2

      I think what he was "trying" to say is that we use devices that require us to give our 100% attention to the device and not to the living world. Now what I mean by that is, for example, lets say I am using Google Maps on my phone. Now in order for me to see where I am going, I have to take my eyes off the road and look at the phone. Yes I could turn on the voice and maps could just tell me what to do, but I'm a visual person, I have to see it for myself to understand sometimes. So even with voice I have to pull my eyes from the driving to look at the phone. With holograms I could be looking at the road and at the same time, my path could be highlighted somehow, completely eliminating the excuse of not seeing that car or stop sign and getting into an accident. I think thats what he means, but its just ranting at this point like Im doing.

    Holograms are manipulations of light to appear as 3D objects in actual space. This is something projected onto a screen that you wear. It's AUGMENTED REALITY. It's really cool, don't get me wrong, but don't bullshit us with fancy titles like DAWN OF THE AGE OF HOLOGRAAAMS!

    • @lorsayden2403
      @lorsayden2403 Před 7 lety +2

      It does not, in any way shape or form, work as a hologram. A hologram is an image that appears in three dimensions. AR simply projects an image to a 2 dimensional see through screen, much like the HUD of a figter jet, only difference being that glasses are used in the video, but other than that, the technology to represent that image in AR and HUD is completely the same.
      With AR you have to have a personal set of glasses to be able to see the virtual objects (that are still on a 2D screen), a hologram is a 3D representation of the virtual object, in other words, it would appear to all as if it was there without the need for a personal set of glasses.

If he can today (or.. two years ago) interact with someone as if he was there, minus physical interaction, with just these glasses, what does this say of the future he talks about?

Projection on water vapor is not a hologram. Also, the mobile app for HUD á la pyramid is not a hologram. Neither lenticular technology on postcards is a hologram.
