Holographic Mobile Handsets Within 2 Years
If you think the iPhone is a cool device, wait until you see what is coming out in the not too distant future.
By 2010, Infosys will have a mobile phone capable of capturing, projecting and sending 3D holographic images.
The handsets will be capable of beaming 3D films, games and virtual goods, providing particular applications for the business world.
Using its onboard processor to build a series of 2D images into 3D holograms and algorithms called ‘Fourier’ transformations to calculate the extra third dimension, Infosys, which has had their patent application approved by the US Patent and Trademark Office, sends unprocessed data across the cellular network, which is processed at the receiving end and converted into a 3D hologram.
The handset will use a projector with a laser source and micro holographic optical elements lenses to display the images.
An Infosys rep said:
“Holographic handsets have the capability of enriching the user experience, with an actual 3D experience and higher-quality images. This gives users a more realistic experience in areas like gaming, medicine, movies etc.”
The 3D images will be displayed without losing resolution, which,aside from business use, will be a boom for mobile gaming.
