- Imagine looking through a sort of magic window, and through that window, you see another person, life-size and in three dimensions. Project Starline is a technology project from Google that combines advances in hardware and software to enable friends, families and co-workers to feel together, even when they're cities (or countries) apart.

imagine having recorded a conversation with someone dear to you who later died, just imagine...
imagine the Ai will learn the way his/her speaking, talking pattern, 3D model, then it'll generate a new him/her so you can naturally have a conversation wth him/her again, like, whoa.
@@hafizhkan- GPT-3 + this == sci-fi
@@hafizhkan- But it must be truly heart breaking to sit down and talk face-to-face with someone already dead just the way people featured in the video did. It's all fun and games until you realize the other party is actually diseased and non-existent anymore.
@@hafizhkan- right? scary but exciting
@@hafizhkan- yes, but it takes several samples of all the word sounds to train the Ai - if you get 20 minutes of your grandma/pa recorded of good clean audio, you can do it.
trailer of this new black mirror episode looks amazing
was thinking the same thing; they just need to work on bad ending
Totally agree, maybe that's where we are heading.
100%
let's make every effort to keep people from real interaction and in their homes. another piece of the puzzle in controlling the masses.
@@jordaneil uh no this is about long distance communication...
Now imagine the 3D lag/glitch when the wifi connection fluctuates. How scarring that will be to see in reality 😂
xD well it could be just stuck and the loading circle comes up
@Windows 10 may be
Reminds me of a scene from silicon valley.
Big head and Belson from Silicon valley😂
Hooli technology xD
*Google in a few years:* hey remember when you could see people in 3d? yeah well now you can also touch them through the screen
That would be cool
Probably as AI and VR advances we'll see that
like in black mirror
@@CoacolaPVP Definitely, there's always a possibility for what's next
@@KarlaSro Yep exactly
Future looks really promising...this is just barely a start, who knows what will happen in near future. Can't wait....
Agree and Dogecoin is the future too
Amazing isn't it the future, can't wait until we all have virtual friends and we just look at food and taste it.
@@senor-fa-von-dia Ok boomer.

This could be life-changing for people in long distance relationships...
rich long distance couple*
Eeeerrrrm... no. I don't see what difference it would make in a relationship than just "FaceTiming". This is still just a video call. They still can't see each other in real life and can't touch each other. This is just a realistic video call, it would make no difference whatsoever. Not more than just look better.
@@bombtv8915 if they're rich they'd probably see each other often and the relationship wouldn't be that hard anyway lol.
Long distance and relationship should not be used together
i hope someone cleans that screen after im done
I can spot compression artifacts, and that's a good thing! Makes it look like a piece of technology that is actually working.
That's artifacts from the realtime 3D capture.
EXACTLY. It wasn’t overly perfect which shows it might actually be functioning in real life
I had to look at it again to catch it. But you're totally right I see some, especially in the hair. No glasses required :)
+ it looks cool as hell like in star wars

Baby steps Google... Try implementing 1080p on Google Meet first...
Or fixing CZcamss resolution quality back
🤣🤣
Damn that was amazing
"Screen off. Mr. Worf, phasers at the ready."
"Red alert. Shields up!"
Sounds like we've got a friend of DeSoto up in here.
Wow! The is like VR & AR & real life all mixed into one.
VAR then, it is
VR + AR = Mixed Reality (MR)
Holograms?
@@austinjoseph2881 naah
And hope in the coming year. Google would be able to resurrect dead people using AI and 3d imaging.
My imagination is an AI trained to be a duplicate of myself. And communicate with my daughter after I am gone.
Wow, that's deep. Kind of reminds me of that black mirror episode..
Not so far away...
No such thing as bad machines, only bad coders. Machines are faithful to do what a coder programs them to do. So long as we don't choose to bow down and worship them or otherwise put them in a position of authority over us ourselves they shouldn't suddenly spontaneously evolve a desire to rebel against their creators and enslave us. That fear projects humanity's own issues onto machines that don't have our ability to question how we're "programmed" and set ourselves up as the coder who decides what is right and wrong, what is true and false, etc. Machines can't develop the feared level of sentience on their own; their developers would have to make them that way. That said, if ever there was a way to do it by accident, it'd likely involve uploading ourselves and marrying ourselves to machines, including a Hitler-type, but that would still be the oops of a good machine stupidly carrying out the will of a Hitler-type. :)
TruMedicines can do that now (not in high def)
It will be possible in the future, but the ethics and legality around it will be the challenge. Like, if we have an AI doppelganger, would it have any rights? An extension of our own rights perhaps? And could those rights persist after death, so the AI can legally carry out our wishes long after we're gone? There's a lot to work out even aside from the technical aspects.
I can see this having huge applications in the restaurant space. Imagine these things in a Starbucks, like their new Viewable Room where people can drink coffee even when they are miles away apart?
Hey man, that’s an awesome idea, I’m gonna buy a bunch of them and put them in a cafe, you’re a genius
I was thinking about just something similar, having dinners with family friends, having the table set in front of the screen and feeling their presence. Christmas, Thanksgiving, Eid, Birthdays, you name it. I would love to have something like this.
How lucky I am to live in this era of time and witness all this greatness being made by humans
thats so beautiful I could cry (I kinda do).
The everpromised future is so close
Have you heard about this new thing that let's you touch each other's faces and actually hug? It's called really being next to each other
@@RinoMoen heard of corona.
@@Aecor heard of vaccines.
@@umamifan heard people working abroad. Or vaccine shortage
This remembers me on Prey's Looking Glass. This is impressive.
Hopefully there's no mimics involved...
@@jasongaunt maybe you were the typhoon all along!
My thoughts exactly
Or Blade Runner projection people
That right there, is how technology should be. It's there to warm our hearts and to break limits.
watch it being eventually used for something sinister
I really hope this isn't a "simulated" depiction of what it will be. It's a really great thing and makes me emotional just by thinking I could see someone almost realistically through a pane of glass.
I don't think the actual video display is what you are seeing in this video. Of course I don't know for sure but that would be my bet. Anyone want to take that bet?
@@treylorswift As the director of this piece, I can confidently say that this was all captured in real-time on a 3D screen. It was an oddly real experience for everyone, including myself.
@@imagenfilms Thanks for vouching for that! Yes, wow, truly amazing! 😎✌🏼
@@imagenfilms Well alright then =) Thanks!
@@imagenfilms what does it look like from extreme angles? I assume the illusion breaks down if you get too far away from a direct straight-on view.
"Don't say goodbye" that hit hard man
Please invite me and my nephew for this. I haven't met my newly born nephew and he is already 18 months old. It will be so nice to have this experience
Can you see them from different angles???? If that's the case, it almost feels like a magic to me. Unbelievable.
You can!! I think it's the same tech like it's built in the Looking Glass Portrait for example, from the Looking Glass Factory :D
It's really magical!!!
Well, it's 3D modelling of the entire person so sure you can.
@@shikharsinha6407 Yeah, but that doesn't automatically have to mean that the image shown on the display would adapt to your viewing angle (if it was a regular display).
But because Google uses a lightfield display, it does that automatically through splitting the light into different directions with a complex prism panel. So you see a different part of the picture and a different perspective of the person shown from each angle. I find it fascinating that it's not even done digitally! 🙈😮
@@shikharsinha6407 Please correct me, if I'm wrong with my assumption :)
Imagine someone streaming live with this technology...
it would actually feel like you’re meeting your favorite celebrity in real life! I literally cannot wait for this to happen 😍
uh
that may not end well depending on the type of stream
I can already hear the coomers
I wish they could do this to a tv. Imagine a top cinema has this technology, that would be mind blowing you would see your favorite actors in real life. Like so that google can make this idea a reality.
This takes that 'quarantine feels like jail' feeling to another level
One of the recommended videos after this was the Google Wave demo from 2009. Hopefully, this doesn't turn out like that.
Pour one out for Google Wave 😪
Or Google Glasses
This will bring people much closer. Something more advanced than video conference. Loved it
and this costs so much that you'll just end up calling them on messenger:)
It'll drop over time
I think that maybe this would be something normal in a few years, now it's expensive asf but imagine in 20 or 30 years
I can imagine this operating like a phone booth where you pay for time.
@Melanin Queen now they got wallpaper tvs that are mostly unaffordable, but yeah, once something better comes along previous stuff gets cheaper
I don't see anything costly at this project. 3d cameras and 3d screens had become more affordable.
I need this to teach the community from my office, being they are at their home. This is really fantastic, and I seriously need it in my dream!
This looks really interesting! It's like photogrammetry but it's real-time, and being used for video calls.
This seems so surreal and the project is just in its infancy. I can't imagine what the future holds, this is so cool.
This is so cool! My dog wouldn't recognize me in video calls. I guess this magic pane gives a 3D structure to the person on the other side. So, maybe my dog would recognize me. I wish it could also simulate smell too.
So good the lack of human contact, the lack of hug, the frustration when saying goodbye. Write a letter, meet in person. DT googgggllle
I really hope this is scalable and can be used by the masses.
"We believe this is where person-to-person communication technology can and should go, and in time, our goal is to make this technology more affordable and accessible, including bringing some of these technical advancements into our suite of communication products."
This reminds me of an Asimov novel, "Naked Sun", the people of "Solaria" and the adoption of social distancing as a culture.
will read it
I have a feeling the Starline project is a preparation for when AR really kicks in. Those two together will be wild. And you could save a few peoples 3D models (like family members) to their device locally so there isn't too much data that needs to be streamed. Essentially having the person you're talking to projected into the room you are in in 3D via AR (glasses or contact lenses)

Please hurry up! I'm deaf and I use ASL and this has me hyped like nothing else before!
It looked like just a really good representation on 2D than a holographic image. I mean they didn't show it looking from different angles at the same time, it was only the front view i.e. 2D the entire time. So I guess it isn't what I expected with a 'holographic' display. That being said, the quality and realism seemed exceptional.
Now imagine the creatures from the other side of the magic glass reach out and grab you. You are pulled in never seen again, working for google forever after.
As an engineering student, I see this as a good thing
Congratulations Google for 10 Million Subscribers.....
Imagine if u could record a call with ur close relatives and then play it back on this, after they passed away so u could see them alive once again
THIS is your holograms ladies and gentlemen. This is also AR tech from Google Glass at a large scale thatll make things like AR glasses show real 3d images oppose to 3D on a 2D plane.
Ummm, not at all!
Holograms *should* not exist in physical space, they *should* be an overlay on reality. The goal of AR glasses (augmented reality) and the idea of holograms is you could spawn them anywhere.
Physical cube displays for 3D images have already existed for some time, they've just gotten nicer, and they're finding consumer level applications for them.
This is just a physical cube display in 1 single space. So, in that room you will be able to see someone / objects in 3D without needing glasses, but it won't be transferrable outside that room.
It's just a nice fancy screen that does a little more than your current screens, except much less portable.
This is absolutely mindblowing.
Wow. I hope this gets broadly available, maybe with a smaller screen or something, or with the help of a TV and a 3D Camera (and a shift in perspective, obviously). Wow.
So like a jail visit lol this is super cool tho
this feels so unreal, almost like an april fools video, but it’s real it’s real it’s real, omg i can’t 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🤯 tech put to good use once again🤝
I have family and friends all over this globe we live on. Having something like this (like ad a dresser mirror or something) one day would make a huge difference for me and everyone I know.
I really hope this makes it to the consumer market.
Since it does a 3d model of you I bet it could be possible to enable it for other uses (try on new haircuts/hair colors, try on cloths and glasses and makeup looks with tutorials for girls. Or new beard styles.)
Heck it might even be good for a doctors quick visit or enable psychiatrist to meet up with patients who have anxiety and can't leave home easily or at all.
I can imagine so many uses for such a tech.
ALUMNI from BLACK MIRROR y’all know the VIBE !
Remember google glass? This is an interrotron on a big screen. It's just people being able to make eye contact because the camera is behind a mirror. But, we need something like it to keep up this video chat existence.
I miss my grandma so much. She lives in India all by herself. She raised my mom and my uncle as a single parent and has achieved so much. I live in Austria and I haven't seen her since December of 2019.
I miss even more every day ❤️

This is amazing, so we can study semi physical classes from around the world, I guess it's the same thing like attending the actual classes.
Now I can see this project starline useful in many ways, remote group meetings, and in the near future we could see breaking news floating in front of our eyes VR + AR, and in first shooter games.
I really see that tech used to make lightweight VR glasses!
I wonder how much of the realism is created by the mirror box projection, lighting, and proper cameras? Could you achieve something half as good for 1/10th the effort and cost? The mirror box projection adds depth, just like old standup arcades that used it. Then projecting people at life size using a large screen contributes to realism. Finally, good lighting with a 4k camera image tops off the experience. That last piece, the 3D capture and rendering, how much does it add to the experience? Is it the last 1%, .1% or is it 50% of the experience?
" Could you achieve something half as good for 1/10th the effort and cost?" Possibly better, depending on what the latency is. We had video conferencing in 1990 that had no perceivable latency, so that was already likely better than this.
Epic Use Of Technology & Engineering 👍Nice Initiative 🎉
Very useful in certain situations. Business and seeing family that live too far away. And of course this will change the adult industry big time! Otherwise it’s like FaceTime to me. I’d rather text first, phone call second if absolutely necessary and video call on rare occasions with family.
Imagine this plus a headset and a set of gloves. Mind blowing stuff.
You're Gonna Need A Really Powerful & Stable Internet Connection For This Thing To Work... So Technically, This Technology's Gonna Take Atleast 3 Years To Reach The Masses.
This is cool and scary at the same time. It's crazy how technology evolving so quickly!
How is it scary? It blows my mind, whenever there is some new technology or something I always see people saying it's scary and I can never understand why.
@@kex0 Ikr? Well I can understand that for AI technology or maybe VR but other of them just makes me so hyped how my life will more comfortable, easier etc.
@@kex0 for me its more scary how fast its coming, and what could also be on the line in just a few years
Imagine putting an advanced AI with this...has some very amazing and unnerving potential...
@@marksmadhousemetaphysicalm2938 holograms 😄
In 10 years we can talk to a "real" Freddie Mercury with AI. Awesome.

@@jd87a uP
@Michael Angelo Tomboc It's definitely unnatural, but it can really help people with trauma of their lost loved ones.
and make him cover a song that was released well after he had died
Definitely excited to try this out and review.
Me: passes blunt to hologram
Also me : Damn. *hits blunt again
😂😂😂
When the thing comes out: "dude, your mouth is on your forehead and both your ears are on one side, my baby is getting scared..let's talk on phone it is laggy AF"
I love it. It blows my mind. Thanks Google. Thanks.
It still has some problems to solve. But with time it's going to be indistinguishable from real life 🤩
Here in my country we call this technology: a TV
Thats what Looking Glas €oes. Cant wait for my looking glas portrait!🚀
I absolutely loved this innovation from Google
Very inspiring, Google! Excellent 👌🏼
Super amazing. Cant wait to see this in action!
search for Looking Glass Factory ....it already exists but it's not cheap or perfect ...but it's pretty awesome
This is insane! Would be so great to have
Amazing AI & VR combination!!!
I don't own an Android device but I truely support Technology.
Let's go! :)
Imagine the different kinds of por... Nevermind.
This is AWESOME!
I'm sure you can do this at home right now. Do exactly what they did. At least 55" Tv, 4K Cameras and less light. Sit in front a neutral wall, and don't sit to close to the camera, the other person has to see the a lot of neutral wall. And another key factor, place a table in front of the TV which is hiding the lower part of the TV. Like in the Video. If you do this, it will give you after some seconds also a similar effect. Now Remember how you doing Video Chats, of course it looks not real 😄
And Yes, they have in the Video better quality and 3D Camera and screen, but the other points are really important too.
phenomenal ! Congrats team Google!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Bro deeni meedha video chey👍
I thought this idea way back when I was in Class 8-9.This is indeed fascinating....
your comment sounds like google copied your own idea, we all have many ideas but implement them practically is totally a different thing
You thought of 3d holographic video calls??? Lol.
And then what?
I hate Google but this really has great potential. Amazing!
simple and mind-blowing idea.
I think you are using Lidar kind of sensor to 3D scan
Wow! This IS magic!
Yeah but not really though
@@relo4727 it is magic though, or it feels like it
@@aryan201 I mean I get what you're saying but it kind of dismisses all the development and engineering that goes into projects like this. It's technology created by a bunch of smart people.
@@relo4727 Yup but wouldn't you say calling someone's work so surreal and ahead that it's time that it's magic is kinda of a compliment? but that depends on how you see it
@@aryan201 Yeah for sure I see that way of thinking about it but I wouldn't say that. Maybe I'm biased because I work in IT though.
Wow! This is elite!
Awesome Black Mirror 🪞
This is mind shattering
Imagine showing this to people in 14th century
BURN IT
Kinda interesting that before major tech advances all such things were unimaginable, but with all the stuff that exists already or was depicted in sci-fi its almost impossible to impress us to anywhere near the same degree.
@@mrmr4622 exactly
The technology is great, the example given in the video is really so great. I say this because traditional video can achieve what the example showed. All the example is showing is how important setup and the environment you shoot in is to video production.
A much better example would have been to place the 3D image in a much more surreal environment that neither participants could easily recreate by simply sitting down in a good video environment.
we need this tech NOW more than ever before
Why?
Definitely something I look forward to purchasing 👍
My god I've been thinking bout this every time I vdo chat and eyes don't match . This is great love to work on this cool thingy when ever in future I join Google.
Is this using that looking glass tech. I'm really happy to see it.
yep same thing
Now thats called innovation
Wow... Really amazing..... 👏👏👏👏😮👍👍👍👍
I wonder how long this project will last before google ditches the idea, just like everything else
That would be amazing if they could do something like this with images and voice recognition with ppl that passed away to make it feel like they are there and u can talk to them
No, just no. Let the dead rest.
Now that is the kind of video calling I was promised for the 21st century.
I cried. If this could b for everyone... it could do so much good...
Personally, I'd pay good money not to see my relatives.
okay
Amen !
😂😂😂😂😂
Some may think it's not real because it's a 3D rendering. But a video call isn't real either. It's a 2D rendering. Same technology, up one more dimension. Cool!!!
search for Looking Glass Factory ....it already exists but it's not cheap or perfect ...but it's pretty awesome
it's like a hole in the wall to the next room it's more like a hologram sitting in space than a 3d display
3D TV's were all the rage about 10 years ago. Panasonic had a set that did not require glasses but had a limited viewing angle. They died off but with Google pushing this tech they may be coming back. On the other side is more than likely a 3D camera with special texture mapping. Tech has been here for a while.
Just woow I really don’t have words to describe it
İncreadible, Keep on going Google.
