The Future of 3D display and the Emergence of Holographic TV

Bit rates

What They Say

A paper in Light:Advanced Manufacturing that looked at the development of different communication and display technologies based on their bit rates. The article highlights the challenges that need to be overcome to allow the development of holography. It reviews issues of depth perception as well as the other factors involved, including some human factors.

The article concludes that as well as technology, appropriated content will be needed.

“Ultimately, where there is a will, there is a way, and the desire for a truly immersive visual experience is ingrained in human nature. It is this desire that will make the holographic television a reality sooner than later.”

What We Think

This is a very useful primer on the challenges of the development of holography for TV-style applications. A summary of the article by the Chinese Academy of Sciences is online here. (BR)
