Building a Motion-Aware, Networked Do-It-Yourself Holographic Display

摘要

The COVID-19 pandemic has motivated a shift from physical interaction, approaches, or procedures due to social distancing. More people are at home using digital displays for real-time communication and engagement. With recent innovations in computational hardware for spatial applications, such as extended reality technologies, entry barriers for hosting intimate, interpersonal, virtual events continue to fall. The barrier falls at such a rate that the production or manufacturing of an extended reality system for different and simultaneous, practical scenarios may be built to solve communication issues resulting from COVID-19. This paper aims to describe a low-cost networked holographic system that can be used for various purposes such as communication, education, and gaming. We created three different applications to show the cross-compatibility, effectiveness, and usability of our system.
