Just Another Atheist Sorry, you are correct, it is AR. However they are not holograms. A hologram is not a hologram just because it is 3D. What makes a hologram is any 3D representation that needs no intermediate device. A 3d image illusion on a 2D plane is a hologram, the moment you need glasses to see said 3D illusion, it is no longer a hologram, it is just AR or VR. This is the definition of a hologram. A hologram must be visible with the unaided eye.
jamie sacco www.dictionary.com/browse/hologram en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography Ok I still say that a hologram must not include any glasses, lens or camera to be seen. This is what I was taught in physics. That being said, I think they are using an actual hologram, only inside the glasses. They are using a glass medium close to the eye, simmilar to Google Glass. They just shape the hologram to match the environment. If it was scaled, 10 people would all see the same thing from 1 source. So yes I guess it's a hologram. I got a bit confused by the fact that nobody else saw it, but it's much more logical to keep a hologram at a very small scale. You would need large humansize glass mediums like the one used in Tupac's holograms.
jamie sacco Think about it this way. A hologram is in of itself a 3D illusion and must be seen as such without any special equipement. If holography could include any glasses then I 3D movies could be considered holography, which they are not, of course.
Ted talk seems like controlled op.. Holograms don't need special glasses to see. The plane that hit the tower was a hologram that everyone "saw".. They want us to think that they are still working out the tech but the tech is just being leaked in a very controlled way.. Dudes got a nasa shirt on so you don't have to ask who's pocket ted is in
exactly my thoughts while watching this. bifocal vision using 2 2d screens existed since millions of years. the 2d projection by the way seemed to have been quite well attuned for where she was standing LOL
@james mack I never tried a shroom that didn't have me hallucinating. Lol. And I never had much at all. Nowhere even close to a gram. Was a long time ago. Maybe they're not as potent anymore?
Also, you can Astral project to mars in your Meditation. We can do more with our Physical body already. But no one is talking about Smarter Humans, because there is no money in that. Technology is a crutch and will dumb you down until you are hopelessly dependent on it. And how do you know that who ever is sending you the data stream, will not alter the data to fool you with an illusion?

This VR is stepping stone for hologram . A real hologram is complicated because it requires lighting. Without it, you won't see what VR would want to show
Holograms are manipulations of light to appear as 3D objects in actual space. This is something projected onto a screen that you wear. It's AUGMENTED REALITY. It's really cool, don't get me wrong, but don't bullshit us with fancy titles like DAWN OF THE AGE OF HOLOGRAAAMS!
+Mark Arandjus Well, the glasses he's using would become smaller in future, just small enough to fit as a contact lens, then we can see 3D computer generated animated objects, just as he is doing, and with enough time those thing would be able to compute enough data that feels as if the object is really there, but still its just augmented reality but still innovating enough.
It does not, in any way shape or form, work as a hologram. A hologram is an image that appears in three dimensions. AR simply projects an image to a 2 dimensional see through screen, much like the HUD of a figter jet, only difference being that glasses are used in the video, but other than that, the technology to represent that image in AR and HUD is completely the same. With AR you have to have a personal set of glasses to be able to see the virtual objects (that are still on a 2D screen), a hologram is a 3D representation of the virtual object, in other words, it would appear to all as if it was there without the need for a personal set of glasses.
Lorsayden BUT if you moved in 3D real world space, YOU COULD WALK AROUND and see the other side, and in stereoscopic 3D, . neither of those equal: 'flat'
There is no substance. To use your words: There is no idea worth sharing in this video. He speaks so broadly, that, in the end, he says nothing at all.
I think what he was "trying" to say is that we use devices that require us to give our 100% attention to the device and not to the living world. Now what I mean by that is, for example, lets say I am using Google Maps on my phone. Now in order for me to see where I am going, I have to take my eyes off the road and look at the phone. Yes I could turn on the voice and maps could just tell me what to do, but I'm a visual person, I have to see it for myself to understand sometimes. So even with voice I have to pull my eyes from the driving to look at the phone. With holograms I could be looking at the road and at the same time, my path could be highlighted somehow, completely eliminating the excuse of not seeing that car or stop sign and getting into an accident. I think thats what he means, but its just ranting at this point like Im doing.
God damn it... yes he's kinda awkward and talks really weirdly, and yes it's basically just a commercial for the HoloLens, and yes, it's also AR and VR, not holographic, but come on guys... you can't tell me it isn't still fucking cool. If he can today (or.. two years ago) interact with someone as if he was there, minus physical interaction, with just these glasses, what does this say of the future he talks about? Actual holodecks, you can essentially be somewhere without being there... it's not now or tomorrow, but it shows that it is the future and it's fucking exciting.
Ok TED should know better. There is nothing holographic about Hololens. Why does this term continue to be misused and why does no one seem to know or remember what an actual hologram is? Just because AR tech can simulate the image of a sci-fi-style hologram it doesn't make it a hologram.
+Cackling Muse "Close enough" is not something that TED is known for. It's actually CNN's fault for popularizing the term incorrectly and intentionally. They literally fooled viewers into thinking that they had a hologram and everyone ate it up. Microsoft is just capitalizing on the popularity. Anyway it's not even close at all. It's like watching a video of a hologram on your TV and then calling your TV a holographic device. We don't have holographic technology even close to what the hololens is pretending to be. They should call it what it is: augmented reality. What are we going to call real holograms when they arrive?
@@redragon9588 The hologram is about diffraction and interference ... it is necessary to record the phase of the light wave in the emulsion layer - to freeze it in time ... to the true holographic world ... without 3D glasses and similar 3D gadgets. The hologram cannot be projected into the air, as in StarTrek. There is a projection of points in a pulsed manner into the air, but this is not a hologram. Projection on water vapor is not a hologram. Also, the mobile app for HUD á la pyramid is not a hologram. Neither lenticular technology on postcards is a hologram. Neither virtual 3D (VFX) is a hologram. The term "hologram" is a commercial sticker, as well as a quantum computer that is actually analog and that works with multiple states of the smallest information unit in superposition. The true hologram can be found in special workplaces, where it consists of a projecting and reference laser beam ... at my workplace, for example.
Describe the internet to someone who's never heard of the internet and you'll get the same responses you're seeing in the comments section here. Unless you possess vision, you're not going to get this just yet. The potential for it is essentially limitless. Also, his Q&A was the best. Pretty stern yet polite mic drop.
I've worn one, experienced the Mars demo for about 20 minutes. It is as amazing as it looks in this video and more. I was absolutely impressed, and that was with high expectations. Unfortunately, he completed bullshitted his way past the fov question. While the visor crosses 180 degrees across your face, the hologram projection is only a small square directly in front of you, which id guess is about 45 degrees horizontally and vertically. It's comparable to an old View Master 3D toy we had as children. I wish they'd just be straight forward about that, as there's no need to apologize for the amazing direction they are taking computers. This is gen 1... Think of the first iPhone compared to the latest... In 5 years this tech will be as common as tablet's are today... and all the skeptics will be eating foot.
Someone who's never heard of it mostly, either now, in the future, or before the internet came out. That would be the full potential set of those who have never heard of the internet. They wouldn't have known or couldn't know how to comprehend what it is unless you actually immerse yourself or have a huge capacity for imagination.
Aaron Forbes Some people in poor places or tiny aboriginal villages. Or the kids in the Amazonian first village. Lots of other examples.. but cannot find the energy to knowing whom they could be. Oh, Perhaps even those living in North Korea that work on the farms as well? But you are right there is not many people who don't know what the internet is and what it's made for.
What's wrong with screens though? The main potential I can see this is more accurate 3d design with better depth perception, but other than that, I don't see the problem with screens.
So many words; so little said. What was the idea worth spreading? It seems I missed it. I would have preferred to just watch a regular commercial, at least then I know I'm being bullshitted from the start.
Your first 1:40secs talk, "...embrace who we are. My dream of technology on the human path" that sense stole my heart. We are technology. I can see you, wearing a t-shirt having a symbol of an owl. I believe you know the connection between owl and super intelligence?!! #Adore #Jupiter
From what I can tell what he demonstrated here is just AR with a separate camera rending the space to a screen. Also I like how he avoided the fov question because I’ve used a holo lens, and it was cool but not as great as he makes it out to be.
Ted has become an advertising platform. Like the guy that talked about his machine that can make a plant taste like it grew anywhere in the world. He was just selling this to rich people, he didn't solve any problem other than his own financial one.
I'd imagine the whole thing being pretty boring for the live audience. That guy is seeing the images through his glasses and we see it edited into the video, but they just see a guy looking at an empty stage, wearing weird glasses. Not the most entertaining thing
I think GOD made us the center of this 3d world that we have not begun to understand. If that device somehow was a microscope to let us walk through life being more sensitive to the zillions of moving parts we are literally surrounded by in our flesh, in our plants in the corner, etc. The problem is we "are" acting like people and are very disruptive to our environment instead of acting like the image of GOD and being "sensitive and considerate to our environment. I agree that this device has the potential to open our eyes to what we ignorantly see as inanimate objects and care about the hunger, pain, and loneliness of the humans we are surrounded by. I hope the next version encourage us to see the living world from the perspective that we were dropped in here to take care of it and each other, not be entertained by it. I think designing from a selfless and giving perspective will unleash the vast potential of this device. Truly allowing humans to knowledge share to help solve each other problems with out us risking catching malaria in the process. Education to children and adults from extremely qualified individuals who are not interested in extensive travel or in being full time teachers for little money, but willing to partner occasionally as guest speakers with educators. Totally exposing the majority of conference call, and meetings for the total waste of time that most are when we could be having meaning transfers and demonstrations that are truly interactive. The possibilities of increased interaction to support and help humanity is exciting. Truly international conferences that make visa's and passports a none issue. I want to figure out how to get employed at a company that is literally changing how we see one another. Will there be franchise, sales opportunities. I feel like this is a Windows 3.1 and can only image what the Vista Windows 10 version of this VR technology will look like. Can I invest? My 19 year old daughter is looking for a job. I'd rather she figure out what knowledge she needs to participate in shaping the vision of the future like this young man. I can see instead of calling 911, you pick up one of these things or EMT's can put one on as they get advice on how to properly give CPR or deliver a baby from someone who can see what they are doing. This could bring back doctors being able to do house calls again, and preachers to visit the sick and shut in. This could replace the telephone in place of the teleport. A whole new type of Ma Bell, Ma Port. I know his presentation was about going to MARS but I can see the applications in my everyday world. Whole new level of home schooling and tutoring. Instead of buy a computer, buy this device. I could keep going.....
So many bad comments below. This is amazing. It's a whole new future of virtual interaction. Extremely realistic overlay. If it looks that great now in the goggles then imagine what it could be like in the future. You could be 100% immersed in a different reality. It's about as close as anyone has got to in reality, only science fiction has tried to represent such ideas in the past.
Only problem that there are no holograms, just augmented reality. Which by itself is fine, but if you state that there is a hologram then it is false advertisement.
+Muntis Grube Exactly, it is simply video trickery, not unlike the yellow football 1st down line. No freestanding objects, but rather a miniaturized set of IMAX projection glasses. Helpful? Yes. Hologram? No.
Extragorey One is not seeing holograms. You are seeing 3D projections. You are seeing a 3D IMAX projection, on a small piece of glass. One would not go to a 3D IMAX movie and say I saw a bunch of holograms. It is simply an impressive video illusion.
+zedooncadhz Especially considering people in RL do not really communicate in any meaningful way either. They are so busy projecting how they want to be perceived that no true communication happens.
The most ironic part is people are communicating more than ever in the history of life on earth. A different kind of communication than face to face, sure- which has advantages- but communicating nonetheless. Never before in history were we able to instantly write to random people on the other side of the world about any topic we want.
I like to speak... In three word... Phrases at a time.... I pause.... Constantly.... For no apparent reason...... God forbid.... I just speak..... Like a normal person
but you can represent tensors like any data in bits so whatever. the only problem is quantum states which are just preposterously inefficient to compute and store
@@quinnrobinsson1646 Exactly! Isn't that something that should be a concern to a majority of people or are we the minority? The more of these talks I listen to, the more concerned I become about the path that all of their "rapidly advancing technology" is leading humanity. They very definition of technology is changing from technology being the application of scientific knowledge to technology is a Divine entity, creating, implementing and in control all of this brand new advanced technology (that is coming out of now where) at such a rapid pace that the scientific community itself as well as the hundreds of affected industries in which all this new tech is being implemented are struggling to keeping with. That is very, very concerning.
@@EpicFishStudio no, not every tensor can be represented by bits. its the same reason why real numbers cannot be faithfully represented by bits. it is true for multivectors though, but not for tensors in general
Years ago while watching Star Trek, I realized they could network the holodecks to present holograms of people to each other for interactions. We're now a few steps closer.
+Pol Lechicki Or you'll get something your own mind isn't quite ready for. My advice is to think of the Hololens as a red herring. What's important to note is that most people don't really care nor want to wear bulky headgear. No one's buying the Oculus, not just because of the price tag, but because of the desire for a real immersive experience where you're not feeling the headset. Don't think that Microsoft is not fully aware of this and publicly releasing things just for smoke and mirrors as what's really coming out will blow you away.. You have watched Star Trek, haven't you?
+Q The First Timelord Remember the phone in your hands that allows you access to all the information that has been accumulated by mankind; was once a massive mechanical system the size of a house that operated on punch cards, and could only do simple operations and calculations.
1. Tedvertisement? I thought you weren't supposed to sell your products in Ted talks. 2. Humans aren't analog, we're digital. Our eyes turn light into electrical pulses. They're roughly 100 megapixels each, at about 16 frames per second. They're much more complicated than cameras, but the comparison can be made. 3D vision is an illusion our brain creates. 3. I've never heard so many meaningless buzzwords and so little concrete information in a Ted talk before. 4. He wants us to stop staring at screens... by strapping screens to our head and staring a them all the time. Am I missing something here?
+Christopher Stone ..mostly good points, especially the last. However, regarding point 2, I have to say... A person can think of people in terms of being digital, yet that does not mean that humans are not analog. Electrical pulses are analog, even if they are expressing digital information. Digital information can be carried via analog means, and analog information can be represented and effectively carried via a digital stream. One can be used to implement the other. There definitely is room for re-interpretation, yet, i think, saying "Human's aren't analog.." might be misleading. ..perhaps perspective changing, yet, misleading.
Grape Ape Your right that saying "human aren't analog" in a vacuum would be misleading. The video makes a point of contrasting analog humans against digital computers. But it's a false dichotomy. Particularly the video is showcasing what the VR participant sees while talking about humans being "analog". Which is why I brought up the point that we have discrete cones and rods in our eyes, giving our vision rought 100 MP, at vaguely defined frame rate. My point was that humans and computers aren't the dichotomy the video would suggest and are in fact fundamentally similar.
+Christopher Stone, Good clarification. I guess my main point is to push back against statements that appear to feed what I believe is an inhumane and terribly limiting perspective on what a human is. Statements that basically say humans are computers. I fear that those who preach humans-as-computers lead technology and the handling of humans in a very bad direction. You may be clear in your thinking, yet the short list you've created could easily be misunderstood by those who are eager to accept an inhumane view of humans/animals and their potential and expression. Those who've experienced more than a computer can do, know that there is much to being a human animal.
You seem to have some misconceptions. Digital is a language. It exists only in the abstract. Digital devices exist in an analog world. Anything operating in a digital fashion is doing so over analog media. People and all that exists in biology have essentially nothing digital about them. I suppose you can say some cells like the rods and cones in eyes do switching but calling the visual system digital is tremendously reductive. It conflates a slew of analog processes with digital processing which are far different from one another.

I love this infomercial. I also love his crotchety old man attitude. Humans have interacted via writing since forever. How is a letter human interaction but a text message some foreign form of communication or interaction
Just another way for people to be *seclude* themselves in their own little bubble world. There is as much, if not more, distancing and seclusion from other people as there is uniting them.
stop bbeing so pessimistic imagine if in the future this was bbuilt into contact lenses and it was completely seemless from reality.. you could turn a dull room into something beautiful and amazing for example it could be used for ppl without the money to buy a real nice house. also eg you could just be working in your bboring office in the city but you could increase morale and happiness by creating a beautiful setting in nature ect - in the future when the tech is much smaller and the holograms work seemlessly with reality that is when this will massively take off.
@@kidwave1 Attitudes like that certainly ain't gonna attract people to interact with you more. There are wonderful, amazing communities all over the internet, and families connected across oceans.
Interesting technology with massive potential. Extremely lame presentation, badly written speech. So many words were said with so little meaning. No clear message.
YES! MS-DOS worked extremely well! True, compared to modern operating systems, it's very limited, but when you flipped on the Big Red Switch, it just WORKED! - unlike Windows, where every time you SNEEZE you get half a dozen "virtual driver" errors. Bah!!!
Despite the fact that I think of Fozzie Bear when I hear his voice, and despite the sometimes valid concerns of the commentating cynics, it's still impressive technology and it was a nice fantasy presentation.
Thank you guys for making this wonderful device! Imagine how much easier would studying be with such a device. Imagine how the whole class can visit a certain time or a president that has passed away hundreds of years ago. Time for the future and past to come to forth at our demand.
Mr. Midenight read a scientific article to actually understand what an actual hologram is. Hint, it's not the what you believe to know from Hollywood movies.
May the Science be with You a hologram is something usually 3d that is visible in real space without the aid of specialized optical head gear. augmented reality is something that overlays with real space and is seen through specialized optics that are the source of the augmentation. what do i have wrong here may i ask?
Mr. Midenight Seriously dude, why don't you educate yourself on what an actual hologram is. I told it is not what you see in holywood movies like Star Wars. You can start with wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography What is created within those glasses ARE holograms.
why not sell it that way? I think it's playing to the fulfilment of the future that 'we' were promised, but I don't think that's unfair. It's the closest thing to holograms that we have.
Alexander M Because it isn't that. Holograms in the way "we were promised" don't include a device as a "window". The stratification of digital content over the real world using a device is literally augmented reality. At least for me when you say holograms the first thing that comes to my mind is the holodeck from star trek
17:18 - Over 60 years ago, I was given "something on my head to communicate with something over there with wireless communicability": my "earseyesmouthoscope".
+pennymac16 sadly those days are gone. I was a child when it used to happen. Don't get me wrong, I love this sort of stuff, but yea, growing up we had physical reality instead of virtual reality.
WAIT A SECOND....."WE WILL BE ABLE TO PUSH AN OBJECT...AND THE OBJECT WILL PUSH US BACK? " NOW....THIS IS WHAT I PERSONALLY CALL....CREATING THE REAL MATRIX. MIND BLOWING STATEMENTS INDEED.
don't pay any attention. nerds are critically minded and find everything awkward. This guys presentation wasn't awkward in the slightest. Especially for the content. Not easy
People asking why is it awkward? Imagine seeing a guy talk while playing around the room. People aren't able to see the holograms. He just talks around and nothing else.
No, the speaker is just so full of himself that all he see's is his own reflection. Thats why he keeps pausing and looking at the audience with that wacko smile..he's not actually smiling at them.
The appropriate, and accurate term for this technology is 3D-AR (three-dimensional augmented reality). NOT holograms, or holography. Thank you for sharing this.
In 1969 I was lucky enough to enroll in a seminar with visiting Professor Nick Negroponte, Co-founder & director of MIT's Media Lab. He described (but we didn't get to experience directly) a project they'd just gotten up and running. They'd set up a football helmet with sensors to monitor the helmet's orientation in a 3D space, and installed two small Cathode ray tubes - one for each eye of the helmet's wearer. The orientation data were sent to a room-sized computer by a hard-wire link, then processed to calculate a pair of Stereo views of a 3D space, in vector graphics - just colored "neon" lines. The two views were sent back, one to each of the two display tubes, so the person wearing the helmet could slowly walk and turn about in a gymnasium, seeing a "virtual" view of a computer-constructed space. Clunky, but the roots of interactive 3D systems like Oculus VR™ have been more than six decades developing. It was heady stuff, just hearing about these developments. In my own undergrad days I only ever wrote a crummy Fortran program to play a lousy game of Tic-Tac-Toe on an IBM 360. Brutal. The real fun came working with 3D animation software 25 years Later at an arcade game company in Milpitas, CA. Now you can get professional workstations and software to sit on a table in your home for less than $10,000 to create theatrical quality graphics. Which means there are 10-year-olds whose parents gave the stuff to'em to keep'em busy. And they're using 'em to do something totally evil, like putting their parent's face on their own body, to call the school and threaten a law suit if teacher doesn't give a passing grade!
This reality of the 2d screens and the internet was promised to bring us closer. This new reality you speak of will only push us further apart. Technology has progressed at a speed that we cannot keep up with in a ethical and social way.
Well, the Secret Space Program already uses this Holographic Technology since the 60's, it is Now the 21st Century (2019)!...Remember the Holographic Room on Star Trek?...I am Just Saying!...God Bless! 😇
Ken Heslip Lots of other things aren't demo'd there either, like Depth of Field. Consider how everything virtually displayed is on a screen right in your face, so your eyes have to focus that close to see everything virtual while those objects are placed in scene further away where your eyes also have to focus. How does that work???
This tech is a great contribution for the future of humanity. This is just the first step, I'm excited about the possibilities that this tech will be able to do in the future.

My exact thoughts, he was describing the kind of thing anyone could think of, not a unique idea.
+hawk0485
Your comment has amused me :)
"We interact with devices too much"... 2 minutes later... "these new devices will be awesome" SMH
I think what he was "trying" to say is that we use devices that require us to give our 100% attention to the device and not to the living world. Now what I mean by that is, for example, lets say I am using Google Maps on my phone. Now in order for me to see where I am going, I have to take my eyes off the road and look at the phone. Yes I could turn on the voice and maps could just tell me what to do, but I'm a visual person, I have to see it for myself to understand sometimes. So even with voice I have to pull my eyes from the driving to look at the phone. With holograms I could be looking at the road and at the same time, my path could be highlighted somehow, completely eliminating the excuse of not seeing that car or stop sign and getting into an accident. I think thats what he means, but its just ranting at this point like Im doing.
haha...another fantastic comment that has made this all worth watching! Exactly ...
God damn it... yes he's kinda awkward and talks really weirdly, and yes it's basically just a commercial for the HoloLens, and yes, it's also AR and VR, not holographic, but come on guys... you can't tell me it isn't still fucking cool. If he can today (or.. two years ago) interact with someone as if he was there, minus physical interaction, with just these glasses, what does this say of the future he talks about? Actual holodecks, you can essentially be somewhere without being there... it's not now or tomorrow, but it shows that it is the future and it's fucking exciting.
El TMG , he talks different because English is not his native language, Portuguese is, Alex is from Brazil.
iDon't know, but iFind this exciting! But the guy at 9:49 in the bottom left doesn't at all. He cant wait till its over.
Is this a TED Talk or a product sales pitch?
TED talk nowadays.. is sales pitch. mostly
Ok TED should know better. There is nothing holographic about Hololens. Why does this term continue to be misused and why does no one seem to know or remember what an actual hologram is? Just because AR tech can simulate the image of a sci-fi-style hologram it doesn't make it a hologram.
+Kobayashi Maru
its close enough lets not get all technical....its just a presentation
+Cackling Muse "Close enough" is not something that TED is known for. It's actually CNN's fault for popularizing the term incorrectly and intentionally. They literally fooled viewers into thinking that they had a hologram and everyone ate it up. Microsoft is just capitalizing on the popularity.
Anyway it's not even close at all. It's like watching a video of a hologram on your TV and then calling your TV a holographic device. We don't have holographic technology even close to what the hololens is pretending to be. They should call it what it is: augmented reality. What are we going to call real holograms when they arrive?
+Kobayashi Maru totally agree with you. This has absolutely nothing to do with holograms.
+Kobayashi Maru That's a good point. That 2pac hologram was an actual hologram. This is just VR.
+Divinecomics This is just AR.
This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Multiplayer games would be like your actually there, with you friends, walking around on mars.
I feel like I just watched a bad magician pull a rabbit out of a hat, and while the rabbits ears were visible the entire time.
Microsoft: these are not holograms. This is augmented reality!
traditional holograms r super limited and super crappy .....this works effectively as a hologram
maby some day real holograms will be as good as augmented reality or near that, everything is being made by small steps just like phones...
@@redragon9588 The hologram is about diffraction and interference ... it is necessary to record the phase of the light wave in the emulsion layer - to freeze it in time ... to the true holographic world ... without 3D glasses and similar 3D gadgets. The hologram cannot be projected into the air, as in StarTrek. There is a projection of points in a pulsed manner into the air, but this is not a hologram. Projection on water vapor is not a hologram. Also, the mobile app for HUD á la pyramid is not a hologram. Neither lenticular technology on postcards is a hologram. Neither virtual 3D (VFX) is a hologram. The term "hologram" is a commercial sticker, as well as a quantum computer that is actually analog and that works with multiple states of the smallest information unit in superposition. The true hologram can be found in special workplaces, where it consists of a projecting and reference laser beam ... at my workplace, for example.
True
oh, so here is the hololens ad at TED
+cilveti You mean another. 6 days ago there was diferend one.
Describe the internet to someone who's never heard of the internet and you'll get the same responses you're seeing in the comments section here. Unless you possess vision, you're not going to get this just yet. The potential for it is essentially limitless.
Also, his Q&A was the best. Pretty stern yet polite mic drop.
I've worn one, experienced the Mars demo for about 20 minutes. It is as amazing as it looks in this video and more. I was absolutely impressed, and that was with high expectations. Unfortunately, he completed bullshitted his way past the fov question. While the visor crosses 180 degrees across your face, the hologram projection is only a small square directly in front of you, which id guess is about 45 degrees horizontally and vertically. It's comparable to an old View Master 3D toy we had as children. I wish they'd just be straight forward about that, as there's no need to apologize for the amazing direction they are taking computers. This is gen 1... Think of the first iPhone compared to the latest... In 5 years this tech will be as common as tablet's are today... and all the skeptics will be eating foot.
Someone who's never heard of it mostly, either now, in the future, or before the internet came out. That would be the full potential set of those who have never heard of the internet. They wouldn't have known or couldn't know how to comprehend what it is unless you actually immerse yourself or have a huge capacity for imagination.
Aaron Forbes Some people in poor places or tiny aboriginal villages. Or the kids in the Amazonian first village. Lots of other examples.. but cannot find the energy to knowing whom they could be. Oh, Perhaps even those living in North Korea that work on the farms as well? But you are right there is not many people who don't know what the internet is and what it's made for.
What's wrong with screens though? The main potential I can see this is more accurate 3d design with better depth perception, but other than that, I don't see the problem with screens.
"We will put people back at the center" and "I can make all of you into elves." Now THERE is a nice pair of self-consistent ideas!
This guy was clearly leaving space for applause that never came.
As what happens when you present ideas with no product of said ideas
Wow, the first ad on a Ted show.
none of those things are a holograms. They were augmented reality. I expected better from TED. This just seems like a giant commercial.
AckrinStreams ...This is NASA commercial, big moon landing liar.
Augmented reality is better than holograms. Try to walk through a hologram.
@Count Roy What? Are you ok?
@Count Roy What are you questioning about me?
@@mcsdaver I'd rather feel the hologram than walk through it.
So many words; so little said.
What was the idea worth spreading? It seems I missed it.
I would have preferred to just watch a regular commercial, at least then I know I'm being bullshitted from the start.
Exactly, thank you

Your first 1:40secs talk, "...embrace who we are. My dream of technology on the human path" that sense stole my heart. We are technology. I can see you, wearing a t-shirt having a symbol of an owl. I believe you know the connection between owl and super intelligence?!! #Adore #Jupiter
From what I can tell what he demonstrated here is just AR with a separate camera rending the space to a screen. Also I like how he avoided the fov question because I’ve used a holo lens, and it was cool but not as great as he makes it out to be.
Ted has become an advertising platform. Like the guy that talked about his machine that can make a plant taste like it grew anywhere in the world. He was just selling this to rich people, he didn't solve any problem other than his own financial one.
9:51 to the left. That's about how excited I got from this.
A true statement
+LeCockSportif Lol you saw him smile when the idiot brought up the moonlanding?
I'd imagine the whole thing being pretty boring for the live audience. That guy is seeing the images through his glasses and we see it edited into the video, but they just see a guy looking at an empty stage, wearing weird glasses. Not the most entertaining thing

Hover-boards that do not hover and holograms that need special headgear to see, that is just using words but not using their meaning.
I think GOD made us the center of this 3d world that we have not begun to understand. If that device somehow was a microscope to let us walk through life being more sensitive to the zillions of moving parts we are literally surrounded by in our flesh, in our plants in the corner, etc. The problem is we "are" acting like people and are very disruptive to our environment instead of acting like the image of GOD and being "sensitive and considerate to our environment. I agree that this device has the potential to open our eyes to what we ignorantly see as inanimate objects and care about the hunger, pain, and loneliness of the humans we are surrounded by. I hope the next version encourage us to see the living world from the perspective that we were dropped in here to take care of it and each other, not be entertained by it. I think designing from a selfless and giving perspective will unleash the vast potential of this device. Truly allowing humans to knowledge share to help solve each other problems with out us risking catching malaria in the process. Education to children and adults from extremely qualified individuals who are not interested in extensive travel or in being full time teachers for little money, but willing to partner occasionally as guest speakers with educators. Totally exposing the majority of conference call, and meetings for the total waste of time that most are when we could be having meaning transfers and demonstrations that are truly interactive. The possibilities of increased interaction to support and help humanity is exciting. Truly international conferences that make visa's and passports a none issue. I want to figure out how to get employed at a company that is literally changing how we see one another. Will there be franchise, sales opportunities. I feel like this is a Windows 3.1 and can only image what the Vista Windows 10 version of this VR technology will look like. Can I invest? My 19 year old daughter is looking for a job. I'd rather she figure out what knowledge she needs to participate in shaping the vision of the future like this young man. I can see instead of calling 911, you pick up one of these things or EMT's can put one on as they get advice on how to properly give CPR or deliver a baby from someone who can see what they are doing. This could bring back doctors being able to do house calls again, and preachers to visit the sick and shut in. This could replace the telephone in place of the teleport. A whole new type of Ma Bell, Ma Port. I know his presentation was about going to MARS but I can see the applications in my everyday world. Whole new level of home schooling and tutoring. Instead of buy a computer, buy this device. I could keep going.....

So many bad comments below. This is amazing. It's a whole new future of virtual interaction. Extremely realistic overlay. If it looks that great now in the goggles then imagine what it could be like in the future. You could be 100% immersed in a different reality. It's about as close as anyone has got to in reality, only science fiction has tried to represent such ideas in the past.
Truly an amazing presentation , the use pf holograms and augmented reality was truly incredible !
Only problem that there are no holograms, just augmented reality. Which by itself is fine, but if you state that there is a hologram then it is false advertisement.
+Muntis Grube Exactly, it is simply video trickery, not unlike the yellow football 1st down line. No freestanding objects, but rather a miniaturized set of IMAX projection glasses. Helpful? Yes. Hologram? No.
+Muntis Grube It's not projecting holograms, but you're *seeing* holograms, so there's still holograms involved. Potayto potahto.
Extragorey yes the same as calling a picture of horse a real horse
Extragorey One is not seeing holograms. You are seeing 3D projections. You are seeing a 3D IMAX projection, on a small piece of glass. One would not go to a 3D IMAX movie and say I saw a bunch of holograms. It is simply an impressive video illusion.
+Muntis Grube Except nobody said there were real holograms, just holograms.
This is almost identical to a parody of TED talks.

+zedooncadhz Especially considering people in RL do not really communicate in any meaningful way either. They are so busy projecting how they want to be perceived that no true communication happens.
+Taladar2003 The term true communication will continue to evolve.
The most ironic part is people are communicating more than ever in the history of life on earth. A different kind of communication than face to face, sure- which has advantages- but communicating nonetheless. Never before in history were we able to instantly write to random people on the other side of the world about any topic we want.
I am with ya. Those ppl fail to realize that we are communicated 1 million times more than they ever do through all of our networking online.

+Daniel Renard ah now i understand.
well yeah that's wrong because we need tensors to describe reality.
but you can represent tensors like any data in bits so whatever. the only problem is quantum states which are just preposterously inefficient to compute and store
@@quinnrobinsson1646 Exactly! Isn't that something that should be a concern to a majority of people or are we the minority? The more of these talks I listen to, the more concerned I become about the path that all of their "rapidly advancing technology" is leading humanity. They very definition of technology is changing from technology being the application of scientific knowledge to technology is a Divine entity, creating, implementing and in control all of this brand new advanced technology (that is coming out of now where) at such a rapid pace that the scientific community itself as well as the hundreds of affected industries in which all this new tech is being implemented are struggling to keeping with. That is very, very concerning.
@@EpicFishStudio no, not every tensor can be represented by bits. its the same reason why real numbers cannot be faithfully represented by bits. it is true for multivectors though, but not for tensors in general
Years ago while watching Star Trek, I realized they could network the holodecks to present holograms of people to each other for interactions.
We're now a few steps closer.
I was also thinking of Star Trek
why are yall sleeping on how good this tech demo is

Thank god finally a positive comment
This was such a long way of saying nothing.
wow... those rain drops at 6:18... I can't wait for the future I'll always be surrounded with those. This technology is just ridiculous.
+Pol Lechicki Or you'll get something your own mind isn't quite ready for. My advice is to think of the Hololens as a red herring. What's important to note is that most people don't really care nor want to wear bulky headgear. No one's buying the Oculus, not just because of the price tag, but because of the desire for a real immersive experience where you're not feeling the headset.
Don't think that Microsoft is not fully aware of this and publicly releasing things just for smoke and mirrors as what's really coming out will blow you away..

“ Imagine living in a fake world without ever leaving your room “….
1. Tedvertisement? I thought you weren't supposed to sell your products in Ted talks.
2. Humans aren't analog, we're digital. Our eyes turn light into electrical pulses. They're roughly 100 megapixels each, at about 16 frames per second. They're much more complicated than cameras, but the comparison can be made. 3D vision is an illusion our brain creates.
3. I've never heard so many meaningless buzzwords and so little concrete information in a Ted talk before.
4. He wants us to stop staring at screens... by strapping screens to our head and staring a them all the time. Am I missing something here?
+Christopher Stone ..mostly good points, especially the last.
However, regarding point 2, I have to say...
A person can think of people in terms of being digital, yet that does not mean that humans are not analog.
Electrical pulses are analog, even if they are expressing digital information.
Digital information can be carried via analog means, and analog information can be represented and effectively carried via a digital stream. One can be used to implement the other. There definitely is room for re-interpretation, yet, i think, saying "Human's aren't analog.." might be misleading. ..perhaps perspective changing, yet, misleading.
Grape Ape Your right that saying "human aren't analog" in a vacuum would be misleading. The video makes a point of contrasting analog humans against digital computers. But it's a false dichotomy. Particularly the video is showcasing what the VR participant sees while talking about humans being "analog". Which is why I brought up the point that we have discrete cones and rods in our eyes, giving our vision rought 100 MP, at vaguely defined frame rate. My point was that humans and computers aren't the dichotomy the video would suggest and are in fact fundamentally similar.
+Christopher Stone, Good clarification.
I guess my main point is to push back against statements that appear to feed what I believe is an inhumane and terribly limiting perspective on what a human is. Statements that basically say humans are computers.
I fear that those who preach humans-as-computers lead technology and the handling of humans in a very bad direction.
You may be clear in your thinking, yet the short list you've created could easily be misunderstood by those who are eager to accept an inhumane view of humans/animals and their potential and expression.
Those who've experienced more than a computer can do, know that there is much to being a human animal.
You seem to have some misconceptions. Digital is a language. It exists only in the abstract. Digital devices exist in an analog world. Anything operating in a digital fashion is doing so over analog media. People and all that exists in biology have essentially nothing digital about them. I suppose you can say some cells like the rods and cones in eyes do switching but calling the visual system digital is tremendously reductive. It conflates a slew of analog processes with digital processing which are far different from one another.
I love how you ruined all this. Super fucking sweet! Cheers! Interesting also.

this is augmented reality not holograms but its still amazing
Mr. Midenight read a scientific article to actually understand what an actual hologram is. Hint, it's not the what you believe to know from Hollywood movies.
May the Science be with You a hologram is something usually 3d that is visible in real space without the aid of specialized optical head gear. augmented reality is something that overlays with real space and is seen through specialized optics that are the source of the augmentation. what do i have wrong here may i ask?
Mr. Midenight
Seriously dude, why don't you educate yourself on what an actual hologram is. I told it is not what you see in holywood movies like Star Wars. You can start with wikipedia:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography
What is created within those glasses ARE holograms.
your link agrees with Mr. Midenight?

Why is everyone trying to sell augmented reality as holograms?
why not sell it that way? I think it's playing to the fulfilment of the future that 'we' were promised, but I don't think that's unfair. It's the closest thing to holograms that we have.
sorry, one more thing: true holograms are science fiction, but I don't see any harm in calling these holograms; there's just a screen involved.
Alexander M Because it isn't that. Holograms in the way "we were promised" don't include a device as a "window". The stratification of digital content over the real world using a device is literally augmented reality. At least for me when you say holograms the first thing that comes to my mind is the holodeck from star trek

That's Microsoft. Overselling and overrating an underdeveloped product.
The appropriate, and accurate term for this technology is 3D-AR (three-dimensional augmented reality). NOT holograms, or holography. Thank you for sharing this.
In 1969 I was lucky enough to enroll in a seminar with visiting Professor Nick Negroponte, Co-founder & director of MIT's Media Lab. He described (but we didn't get to experience directly) a project they'd just gotten up and running. They'd set up a football helmet with sensors to monitor the helmet's orientation in a 3D space, and installed two small Cathode ray tubes - one for each eye of the helmet's wearer.
The orientation data were sent to a room-sized computer by a hard-wire link, then processed to calculate a pair of Stereo views of a 3D space, in vector graphics - just colored "neon" lines. The two views were sent back, one to each of the two display tubes, so the person wearing the helmet could slowly walk and turn about in a gymnasium, seeing a "virtual" view of a computer-constructed space.
Clunky, but the roots of interactive 3D systems like Oculus VR™ have been more than six decades developing. It was heady stuff, just hearing about these developments. In my own undergrad days I only ever wrote a crummy Fortran program to play a lousy game of Tic-Tac-Toe on an IBM 360. Brutal. The real fun came working with 3D animation software 25 years Later at an arcade game company in Milpitas, CA. Now you can get professional workstations and software to sit on a table in your home for less than $10,000 to create theatrical quality graphics. Which means there are 10-year-olds whose parents gave the stuff to'em to keep'em busy.
And they're using 'em to do something totally evil, like putting their parent's face on their own body, to call the school and threaten a law suit if teacher doesn't give a passing grade!

This reality of the 2d screens and the internet was promised to bring us closer. This new reality you speak of will only push us further apart. Technology has progressed at a speed that we cannot keep up with in a ethical and social way.
ชื่อว่ามันดีมากเลย Good Idea มากทำไมพวกคุณถึงคิดสิ่งเหล่านี้ได้นั่นแหละจึง เทคโนโลยีใน หรือเทคโนโลยี ต่างๆ ต่างๆ พวกเราเคยอยากรู้บ้างไหมว่าทำไมธรรมชาติสรรสร้างสิ่งมหัศจรรย์เหมือนเป็นโรคเวทมนตร์มาให้เราเลยแต่เราไม่ถือมองกันไม่เห็นนั่นคือสิ่งมหัศจรรย์ที่มันอยู่รอบตัวเราเป็นสิ่งที่ธรรมชาติสร้างขึ้นและสิ่งเหล่านั้นมาก่อเกิดโมเลกุลต่างๆเกิดขึ้นได้อย่างไรมันก็ขึ้นอยู่กับโมเลกุลของมนุษย์แต่ละอย่างที่ใช้ในขอบเขตพื้นที่นั้นในพื้นที่นั้นว่าโมเลกุลและสสารพื้นที่ลมแดดส่องฟ้าบรรยากาศต่างๆมันเอามารวมกันทุกอย่างละ ชมบรรยากาศและตกมาเป็นตะกอนต่างๆหรือโมเลกุลต่างๆทำให้เกิดขึ้นสิ่งเหล่านี้เกิดขึ้นทำให้เราสะดวกสบาย สร้างได้แล้วทำให้เราจับต้องได้ ผู้คนสามารถสร้างขึ้นมาได้แล้วพวกเราจะได้จะต้องสิ่งที่มันมีจินตนาการในหนังที่เป็นพวกคนที่เป็นมนุษย์เหมือนเราสามารถทำให้เราสามารถจับต้องได้

How does that work???
+Mirror's Light Virtual objects are created at a virtual distance of infinity focus for the eyes. Effectively everything is in focus.
This tech is a great contribution for the future of humanity. This is just the first step, I'm excited about the possibilities that this tech will be able to do in the future.
Amazing! If only he can be consistent
