Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems, methods, and devices that generate and display a multiple view 3-D holographic image (“image”) of a 3-D real or synthetic scene are presented. A projection system captures visual information of the 3-D scene from various perspectives and generates model data to create a 3-D model of the scene. The model data is converted to holographic data, which is respectively portioned corresponding to the respective perspectives of the scene and used to generate and display respective portions of the image on respective display sections. The display sections can be separate display sections corresponding to the various perspectives, or the display sections can be on a single display that is divided into sections for the various perspectives and a 3-D adapter is employed to facilitate display of the image in the display area, wherein reflector components can be used to reflect the portions of the image to the display area.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A system, comprising: a processor, coupled to a memory, that facilitates execution of computer-executable components, comprising: a holographic projection module that captures visual information associated with a three-dimensional scene, wherein the visual information comprises optical waves that are scattered by the three-dimensional scene and captured by the holographic projection module, and wherein the optical waves, at least in part, comprise three-dim…
