The Future of Entertainment Displays - Creating an Ultimate Reality Experience™

There’s a massive paradigm shift in how the world experiences, communicates and consumes media. Society today has a deep psychological need to interact and communicate with the everyday world, craving immersive entertainment experiences. This is a motivating reason as to why the entertainment industry is integrating MR in gaming, sports, theme parks, and more. As we look ahead to the future of the entertainment industry, users will truly be able to experience the everyday world without headgear or 2D displays creating a separation from live experiences. In this session, Jon Karafin, CEO and founder of Light Field Lab, will speak to the next generation of display technology - a true dimensional holographic experience indistinguishable from reality. Going beyond 2D displays and flat screens, the future of entertainment is dimensional holographic displays that escape the screen to create hyper-believable, real-world interactions. The future is all about immersive media and technology from cinemas and live theaters to theme parks and gaming centers - ultimately every display will be a true holographic experience.

I remember this guy presenting the Lytro Cinema Camera. He definitely believes in light fields being the future.

[@Metacognition88]

usually employees of a company like their products

[@dedlunch]

It's literally the only way

[@victorrobert4600]

Amazing !

[@slipsream47]

Excellent!

[@AlexWilliamsArt]

I can see this exploding in the adult industry

[@rawryxd9026]

Of course. better be getting into animation 😏

[@dedlunch]

Literally the only reason the internet exists

Ever watch blade runner 2049?

[@jaredearl3562]

A big application for this will be remote work. Big white collar companies forcing employees to come back to the office are doing so, at least so they say, because they are concerned about collaboration and culture. Put a few of these panels in your home office, and suddenly your team could be there with you.

I believe 0:52 of this Cablelabs Near future video is what you seek kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5y3lpSsd5h8fck

Alright!, next year in my house attached to my wall please.. So i can remove my bulky TV permanently. and perhaps my monitor as well.. I could definitely see this coming into tablets and smartphones as well.

[@Gabdimension]

When the first Holographic Smartphone release?

[@atilla4372]

I wonder how this will compete with AR glasses

[@NinetooNine]

This seems like it would be easier to create an wavefront eye box around your eyes in a VR headset. Rather then spend the insane amount of money to create a massive wall screen. I get the idea of something being a shared experience but this seems far better suited for a VR headset.

[@nedisawegoyogya]

imagine it's installed in a planetarium.

[@NinetooNine]

@@nedisawegoyogya Sure. Like I said I get the shared user experience idea and I could definitely see niche markets for this technology to be used in. A much bigger (still developing) market this could be well suited for like VR, seems like a smarter place to put their energy.

[@Crunkboy415]

I think this is meant to eliminate the physical inconvenience of a VR headset. It always comes down to the integration and normalization of this tech into the daily lifestyle. Think Model T, passenger plane, personal computer, cellphone, streaming media.

[@callowaymotorcompany]

nobody wants to wear a headset.

[@NinetooNine]

@@callowaymotorcompany Nobody wants to carry around a glass and Aluminum brick in their pocket either, but they do because it is useful.

[@demiurgeHater21]

the sad thing is even this is not holographic. this is integral imaging. real dynamic holographic display requires 10-100 terapixels. a thousandfold increase in resolution over what this guy is talking about. we won't get a holographic TV at a local Best Buy until the 22nd century.

[@chenjus]

Neat, could you recommend research papers on this?

[@demiurgeHater21]

​@@chenjus If we get lucky, hopefully, anti-aging will be invented, so most of us in our 20s-30s can live to see the 22nd century.

[@themcdougalbugle]

You can't just freeze photons in mid-air. Real holograms are impossible.
