Hungarian 3D display company Holografika is demonstrating its HoloVizio C80 glasses-free 3D system this week in SIGGRAPH’s Emerging Technologies section at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
“It uses a silver screen that is as shiny as tin foil,” notes ETCentric staffer Phil Lelyveld. “As you move off-axis, the image on the far side fades out. But it is an effective, multi-view 3D experience seemingly devoid of sweet-spot transitions.”
“Holografika is pushing proprietary light-field technology to produce natural 3D view,” explains the press release. “The C80 glasses-free 3D cinema system has a 3,2m x 1,8m reflective holographic screen to create stunning 3D scenes, videos, that appear behind or in front of the screen, with continuous parallax in the entire field-of-view, where viewers can even look behind the objects.”
“The 3D projection engine is based on compact LED modules optimized for the purpose, delivering an exceptional 1800 Cd/m² on-screen brightness, which is unique for LED projection systems as of today,” adds the release. “The HoloVizio C80 is a front projection optical arrangement that can fit various cinema rooms and easy to upscale. The 60 Megapixel system is controlled by Holografika’s Cinema PC Cluster.”
Holografika is demonstrating the system’s capabilities with 3D images/video, animation, CG and interactive 3D applications. For those attending the conference, the company is located in the Concourse Foyer, ET-21.
