# Holographic Teleportation Platforms Microsoft's HoloLens Technology Will Soon Support Holoporting By Malika Renee Butss | Published 2016-03-28 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hololens-technology References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2016/3/microsoft-holoportation-hololens) & [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=219&v=7d59O6cfaM0) [Microsoft’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/microsoft-mesh) [HoloLens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xar) technology, which is now available for pre-order, has created quite the buzz since its initial announcement. Now the tech giant is announcing a brand new innovation that uses the same [augmented technology to create holographic teleportation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meta-hyperscape-capture). Aptly titled Holoportation, this new innovation utilizes the HoloLens technology to allow images, sounds and movements from 3D cameras to be captured, stitched together and then transmitted in real-time. This provides an almost realistic virtual replica of a human being. Microsoft’s I3D research group has created Holoportation to record and play back past interactions, which makes it seem as if users are physically interacting with their memories. Holoportation also has the power to shrink a person down to fit on a table for even more hi-tech fun. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [AI](https://www.trendhunter.com/ai) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Augmented Reality Teleportation:** There is an opportunity for companies to develop augmented reality technologies that allow users to virtually teleport and interact with others in real-time. - **Realistic Holographic Replicas:** Creating realistic virtual replicas of human beings using 3D cameras and augmented reality technology can revolutionize various industries such as entertainment, communication, and education. - **Recordable Interactions with Memories:** Incorporating the ability to record and play back past interactions with holographic technology can create innovative applications in areas such as therapy, training, and virtual travel. ### Where This Applies - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can explore the potential of holographic teleportation for immersive experiences in movies, gaming, and live events. - **Communication:** Telecommunication companies can utilize augmented reality teleportation to enhance remote collaboration, virtual meetings, and teleconferencing. - **Education:** The education sector can benefit from holographic teleportation to enable interactive virtual field trips, remote lectures, and hands-on learning experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Full-Body Hologram Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portl-epic.md) - [Hyper-Realistic Holograms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solidlight.md) - [Meeting-Enhanced 3D Holograms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holobox.md) - [Sleek Holographic Communication Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holographic-communication-device.md) - [Scan-to-VR Technologies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teleport-by-varjo.md) - [Portable Holographic Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looking-glass-go.md) - [Holographic Hybrid Meeting Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/webex-hologram.md) - [Free-Floating Holographic Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looking-glass-gen2.md) - [HDMI-Supported Holographic Displays](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hypervsn-smartv.md)
