Road to VR

RealView claims to be using real holography to solve a major problem inherent to AR and VR headsets of today, the vergence-accommodation conflict. As a starting point, here is a demo video, allegedly shot through the display and without any special effects: I say allegedly, but I do believe this to be true. And speculate I will.

Tags on the video made it clear that this project is early in production, and the video itself seemed heavily produced and scripted suggesting that any actual HoloLens (or Mesh)-enabled version of Pokèmon Go to actually materialize won’t be here any time soon; however, it gets us thinking.

Here is an update on my quest to stay on top of all things “holo:” HoloLamp and RealView “Live Holography.” This is a solid and well-known technology called structured-light 3D scanning , and can be seen in action at the beginning of this HoloLamp video clip. And speculate I will.

Our innovation on virtual experiences includes technologies that you’ve probably heard a bit about already, such as foveated rendering, varifocal optics, holography, and light fields. For an action title to feel responsive, latency needs to be under 150ms in a traditional video game, so keeping it reasonably low is a challenge.
