Advances in Holographic Technology Could Have Far-Reaching

Implications. Retrieved May 08, 2016, from http://bigthink.com/dr-kakusuniverse/advances-in-holographic-technology-could-have-far-reaching-implications
This article talks about the various advances in holographic technology and how it can
help dramatically to society. The article speaks about technology that makes a 3d person conduct
a speech within a persons home in Tokyo. It also includes a video on the process how they use
computerized data to assemble a 3d holograms of a person by taking various pictures of a person
from different angles.

This article speaks of a new chip being developed that will bring holograms, like the ones
used on money, to the smart phone. In detail it talks about the chip will conduct carious photos to
create hologram with the flashlight on the phone. This will then be translated by the chip onto the
phone as a hologram and will display the 3D image on screen.

Japanese scientist have created touchable holograms. They have developed something
called fairy lights which fire high frequency laser that travel so slow it responds to the human
touch . It can then be manipulated in air at any point. By using various mirrors and cameras the
tiny points called voxels will produce images of up to 200,000 dots per second of resolution.
hey have also created a video on how it works, by using various beams of light to create these
images. This however was only made on a miniscule made but there are plans to make it on a
larger scale.

Apple has plans to bring projecting holograms to their next iphone. Apple recently
patented a three dimensional display system that mimics holograms without special glasses. By
using forward facing camera and a sensor that tracks the viewers eyes with a screen that sends
out beams of lights at different angles, the image can then appear out of the phone. The article
then proceeds to how this helps Apple, as a company, gain profit.

This article talks about how there could be a new way of projecting holograms; through
the evanescent part of guided wave or the guided wave in a thin film hologram. This hologram
would be known as wave guide hologram: and has different possibilities of integration. This
type of holography was proven through various reconstruction experiments with guided wave of
wave guide hologram recorded with a plane reference wave.

This article talks about how Microsoft created a hologram that creates a 3D hologram of
people just like star wars. Microsoft uses hololens augmented reality, which can transmit real
time 3D models of people. The system uses 3D capture technology and tracking system to
holoprt. Holograms can be interacted in real time or played back later and they can also be
miniaturized , like placed on a coffee table.

Retrieved May 08, 2016, from http://www.cnet.com/news/graphene-produces-a-working3d-holographic-display/
A Australian university is close to creating a hologram in a star wars fashion made from
versatile carbon based grapheme as the key. The grapheme-enabled display created by a team of
researchers from Griffith University and Swinburne University of Technology is based on Dennis
Gabor's holographic method. By doing this method to create holograms it prevents materials on
Earth from being wasted and reused. Currently the project only projects small pixelated images
however future use can help for security labels and personal identification.

When you "see" stuff, you see it because they enter your eye, get focussed by the lens and hit the
retina. In addition you see 3D because the image seen by your left and right eyes are somewhat
different; the brain reconstructs a 3D image from it.
If you are looking at a tree, it is the light reflected off the tree that the eye uses to "see" the tree.
If you could come up with a trick to remove the tree but at the same time send the light to your

eyes as if it had come from the tree. Your brain couldn't tell the difference because your eyes are
still receiving the same light as when the tree was there. This is what a 3D hologram does.
A hologram is a pattern of light and dark areas. When you shine a laser onto a hologram the
light and dark areas scatter the light by a process called diffraction. The clever bit is that the light
is scattered in exactly the same way as if there were a tree there, so your brain sees light that
looks as if it has come from a tree, so you see a tree. It appears in 3D because the hologram
scatters light differently depending on the angle you're looking at it, so your left and right eye
receive differently scattered light just as they would from a real tree.

http://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/23487/3d-holograms-how-are-they-created
Multicolor holograms exist with new technology and using a new method. This method is based
on volume holograms that are using braggs reflection; gives the angles for coherent and
incoherent scattering from a crystal lattice. When X-rays are incident on an atom, they make the
electronic cloud move as does any electromagnetic wave.
( http://www.eserc.stonybrook.edu/ProjectJava/Bragg/). By using white light beams, it can allow
flexibility in holography. By using projections and diffused light of single color and multiple
colors they can create a multicoloured hologram

This article written by Hannah Bouckley discusses holograms and their future use of
communication as seen on science fiction films. She claims talking to a 3D projection may no
longer be the stuff of science fiction according to the latest holographic technology on display
at the Flux Innovation lounge run by Engage Productions. The Conran Holo Mk2 is also
mentioned and is said to be the worlds first 3D interactive hologram. The Holo uses technology
based on the 18th century illusion called Peppers Ghost, where an image is reflected off a sheet
of glass to make an object appear where it isnt. Previously, Peppers Ghost technique was used
by Indian politician Narendra Modi to make a holographic speech. This was used for the purpose
so that he could make the speech in multiple locations during the Indian election. It was also
used to resurrect the dead rapper Tupac Shakur at the 2012 Coachella music festival. It is said
by experts that What we are working towards, effectively youll be able to make a phone call
and talk to a holographic projection at the end of a phone
