"My dad has been working on the world's first volumetric display or “hologram” the Holovect. It manipulates air density and projects onto it with programmable vectors using lasers to create true 3D images. No smokescreen no gimmicks, this is the real thing. The software will be completely open source to help integrate this technology and make it available for everybody through kickstarter! Spreading the word would be great so that it can get funded!" - Dokels from Tumblr

swamidog

ListenHereFucko
Great job! Tell us more.
AmbiguousGardens
The holovect. Your dad is a nerd
Davidnfilms
Only 48 hours to go, 350k needed only have 10k. Needs more visionaries.
WhereOnceThereWasAYachtNowThereIsNot
Uhhhh... "$11,950 pledged of $350,000 goal. 23 hours to go"... ... yeah I think this tech may have to wait a biiiiit longer

Imagine the horror movies of the future after this thing gets perfected. Now instead of board tvs and phones spirits will use these to comm.
clid3r
As someone who has an awesome tech product they tried to launch on Kickstarter but fell short, I commend your attempt.

Would you like to know more?......FRACK YEA!!

So now this needs to be made: http://imgur.com/4zG1gEF

TheMiscreant92
This is what a cat chasing a laser in human form would be like.
Pseudosim
@OP Cool... also reminds me of the prothean Vi holographic avatar.
stealmydebt
That's neat but call me when he starts working on light sabers.
SvarvSven
tipdub
so awesome
OneLonelyFajita
Right, what the hell - Why hasn't this been pushed and advertised!? There's only 39 hours left on Kickstarter. GO! FUND THAT SHIT!
TheFilmNews
We are this much closer to having our reality mirror Star Wars
MrPredator
It. Has. BEGUN!
felofilipino
AWESOME AF
Leozas
I dont mean to burst your hubble. But its not the first of its kind. Similar projects involving ateam and water vapor as well as fog have 1/
Leozas
What i am getting at is "Holograms" not the smokescreens a project ia or isnt using.
eggmuffin
That's what OP meant by "no smokescreens".
Leozas
Been done to some "workable" degree.
liberated
There have also been plasma based projects... But that takes a ton of energy, and are super dangerous. They basically ignite the air.
Squelchtone
I need a phased plasma rifle in the 40 watt range.
Bentheidiot
This is something I can get behind. To the front page with you!
WitcherSchoolDropout
Make it display Supreme Leader Snoke 100 feet tall, then I'll be really impressed
burquina
Or a 100 feet tall scone, that works too.
TheSecondPiewackit
Just realized that they showed a progression of technology there. Old holos were choppy, snoke, you didn't know it till he disconnected.
YesmynameisGreg
And... somehow... the hologram managed to block light from the window behind it.
ChipmunkHunk
But IS he 100 feet tall? WHO KNOWS?
WitcherSchoolDropout
The flickering made it obvious it was a hologram, maybe he's actually really, really small or something.
DatDarthCaedus
Andy Serkis, possibly... he mentioned the true size in an interview, apparently :D
dbaked
Nope it's Darth Plageuis
ChipmunkHunk
So we had to wait 2 weeks for Episode 7 spoilers, but Episode 8 spoilers are cool?
IFoundOutICanChangeMyUsernameSoNowYoullNeverKnowWhoIWas
Didn't a Japanese university create interactive fairy lights on a small scale? Team these two fuckers up and let's get shit done!
TacticalEtching
Yes they did. http://www.engadget.com/2015/07/03/floating-plasma-display-femtosecond-laser/
WorldsSmallestMegaDick
Iowa had a room that did stuff like this in 2012 I remember.
JonesN4
$10,700 out of $350,000 funded with 45 hours to go? Seems like a last ditch attempt to get backers using cool gifs.
Imghurrr
Well I wish them luck if they're serious about development
GeorgeoftheDongle
Yeah as cool as this is, I don't think its gonna get backed
TabletsForPorn
I can't blame people, their rewards are really lackluster, anything less than $540 and all you get is software (useless alone) and credited
CyricV
I really wish this had gotten better advertisement :C
PublicRelations
It should've been advertised from the get go much better than it was, I'm pretty on top of stuff like this and this is my first time seeinit
apocalypseyesterday
Great video on it here ---- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THYhP3_wmLs ----- Answered most of my questions about the technology

Holy! HAK5 still exists! Darren is getting OLD! :D

BallsackHippo
Imagine if you could have someone like this for a somekind of video phonecall?
FallingWithStyleSquirrel
I like where you're coming from but it's Obi-Wan Kenobi
NirvanaNik
Exact thing that popped in my head. +1 for you!
greenroom628
This better be the first message sent.
gag3rs
It's actually "help me Obi-Wan kenobie, you're my only hope"
jsktrogdor
If history is any indication, more often than not the audio that will be coming out of that thing will be "OH YEAH BABY YEAH, YEAH, HARDER."
senkuo
Id prefer my hologram to say "AND HIS NAME IS... JOHN CENA"
ThatOBrienGuy
You don't always have to fuck her hard, in fact sometimes that's not right to do
NotABadLookingNarcissist
I was pretty happy when I scrolled down to see this as the top comment.

If this gets going. Imagine in 30 years, you could develop virtual 3D environments.
Doopapotamus
Second question: Can I have sex with it?

I give it 15 years for good quality.
uhhhnick
I imagine less, given how fast technology excels these days.
hereforstuff
I bet its surprising how fast things can get done with the promise of holographic porn
vlej
