Light Field Lab, a company we first visited in 2021, keeps improving its holographic technology, and the latest example is this talking head. It not only looks more realistic than ever, but now it ...

Holograms. Practically every sci-fi movie and TV show from the last 50 years has some version of this futuristic technology. A realistic 3D object composed of nothing more than light, usually ...

While most holographs aren't exactly sentient, there are many "artificial" photonic beings that exhibit the characteristics ...

Light Field Lab is shipping holographic tech for deployment as early as 2025. The demo took me inside the company’s headquarters in a kind of faux Area 51 secrete government facility.

Particles of twisted light that have been entangled using quantum mechanics offer a new approach to dense and secure data storage. Holograms that produce 3-D images and serve as security features ...

The approach offers a compact yet flexible method that is difficult to achieve with conventional materials. To demonstrate, the researchers successfully created four holographic letters—"H," "V ...

The Nintendo 3DS notwithstanding, 3D technology still comes under the classification of cumbersome. The viewing angle is usually poor, or you need to wear special glasses. Neither of these options ...

In particular, a time-resolved holographic microscope can selectively acquire an optical signal at a specific depth by using a light source with a very short interference length of about 10 μm ...
