Could hologram technology be the future of video calls? - BBC News

The Proto M is a hologram device that lets people beam themselves thousands of miles away.
Proto was founded by David Nussbaum in Los Angeles in 2019 and is already shipping its human-sized machines worldwide.
The latest version is expected to cost around £2000 when it hits the market next month.

    If I put this in the category for VR and Augmented Reality, I’d call all of this stuff the awkward phase. I think we all know we need more intuitiveness and tech that is superior to in person meetings. But we haven’t hit the gold spot yet. I think we’ll see something for the masses in a decade.

    Interacting with a 3D image of the person you're talking to in real-time is genuinely revolutionary. Not only will this enhance the video calling experience, but it also has potential in various fields like manufacturing, architecture, and entertainment. Can't wait to see how this technology develops and becomes more widely adopted in the future.

    The latest iteration... yea, this has been tried a few times before. There are two major issues. One, if you want to make a call you have to enter a "telephone room", as in comparison to what used to be a booth. and the Second is the receiver, a box just as deep as the image it's presenting. Even reduced to handheld scale that would be a large box in your pocket. And I'd like to point out that this already exists in VR, the only issue once it's active is that the person you're talking to is wearing VR goggles for some reason... It's a nice try, but I really don't see how he's going to introduce this to everyone's homes.
