The discussion centers on the feasibility of projecting 3D mid-air images and videos without a holographic screen, akin to the Princess Leia hologram from Star Wars. Participants conclude that current technology does not support such capabilities, and there is no timeline for when this might change. The conversation emphasizes the gap between fictional portrayals of holography and real-world physics, with no definitive answers provided regarding potential advancements in this area.
PREREQUISITESIndividuals interested in holography, technology enthusiasts, physicists, and professionals in the fields of imaging and display technology.
Malaxus said:I am very curious about holograms and if there is a possible way to project 3D , mid-air images and videos on air with no holographic screen (The Princess Leia hologram in Star Wars).
Malaxus said:If it is not possible, how long till they actually start arriving to the world and how will they work/operate?
What if such thing was possible and was to arrive in the next six years? What would change?Drakkith said:Not that we know of at this time. Not like how holography is portrayed in things like star wars and star trek.
We don't even know if such a thing is possible, let alone when it will arrive and how it works.
Malaxus said:What if such thing was possible and was to arrive in the next six years? What would change?
No, just curious. Thanks anyways. 2020 is the year.Drakkith said:Much more than I could possibly imagine and post about. I'll leave all that to your imagination since it isn't going to happen.
Do you have any questions that have to do with current, real-world physics? If not I'm going to have to lock this thread.
