Holographic idol Hatsune Miku is the creation of the group Crypton Future Media, using software from Vocaloid, and the group has put the avatar on tour with a live band. The sight of thousands of screaming fans waving glow sticks while the the holograph “performs” on stage is straight out of a science fiction novel.
Thanks to qandrew, for the heads up. Amazing video. I’d love to go to a concert.
Apparently as part of the Japanese bid for the 2022 (Football) World Cup was the offer of projecting entire live football matches into stadiums around the world. Not my cup of cha, but I can imagine if you like football and can’t travel to the actual match then that might get you your fix of atmosphere, while almost seeing the same thing as those who made the journey.
One day perhaps we’ll be able to get table versions of these projectors so that we can have Formula One races projected onto our coffee tables like virtual Scalectrixs tracks!
