What They Say
A Dutch company, Tekle Holographics said that it was going to CES 2022 to show a ‘metaverse portal’ that showed images in ‘real size and without a headset’. The company claims to have a software solution for AR and VR as well as a ‘holographic camera’. The firm said that it has a number of displays available.
- The Holo-Room is a 4x5m fully immersive room suitable for lifesize experiences and realistic simulations.
- The Holo-Table is a 2x2m device, that provides a bird’s eye view of realistic 3D data. It’s best for visualizing landscapes and tracking real time developments, like a holographic image of a building, or a digital twin of a city.
- The Holo-Wall creates a 2×3.5m screen which visualizes 3D information and acts as an interface between the real and virtual worlds. Holograms can come out up to 4m. Projections can be either interactive or stand-alone animations. Ideal for presenting car models, for example, but also for museums to display depot pieces or for educational projects.
- The portable Holo-Wall is a portable version of the Holo-Wall that fits into two suitcases and can be set-up within 10 minutes.
What We Think
The firm is at pains to point out that it is not just a ‘pepper’s ghost’ type of illusion, but I see nothing that suggests to me that it has a genuinely holographic display technology. (BR)
