Did you see it?

[GeneStarWindGSW]

About a couple of hours ago I was watching CNN news and they said "this is the first time this has ever happened on tv". I was like w/e... probably nothing new, so then i look and they are projecting a hologram in the news. i was WTF! lol

who else saw it? I thought that was pretty cool

Here is the link to the video in HQ
YouTube - CNN e collegamento in Ologramma (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkAMorn07Rc&fmt=18)

[lflkajfj12123]

lol politics are so boring they have to make fake holograms on the tv

[anthony240]

i was watching this touch screen presentation and thought it was cool, wonder what's next and found this. I wonder what they'll be doing 4 years later...

I was waiting for Obi Wan and Yoda to appear next to her.

The force is strong with you, Wolf Blitzer.

Big deal, the darkside has always had holograms. Expect to see more when Obama is elected lol

this looks like blue screen trickery to me, though

[k-love]

lol I was wishing she would strip and the guy would walk over and try to grab her and be like DAMN! not again!

[ericcastro]

Soooo,
Its in a large tent.
It took 3 weeks to construct.
has 35 cameras, all motion control with the cameras in the studio.

What a fucking joke and waste of money!!

If they just use the motion control technology and a green/blue screen they could get the exact same thing.
What a bunch of fucking morons.
Shes not actually projected there, so its not a fucking Hologram either.
Its just a composit on our tv's

Dumb.

Could have done the same thing with 2 cameras and Chroma key. They only cut 2 angles on her. No pans or anything that would have been worthy.



CNN's holographic freakout begins, seems totally bizarre and unnecessary - Engadget (http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/04/cnns-holographic-freakout-begins-seems-totally-bizarre-and-unn/)

Totally.
I think I saw one camera move. It was a really slow crane shot over the back of her whole body.
So they basically needed one motion controlled camera.
Then a regular camera for the front shot and one for the side.

They basically could have saved 32 cameras and about 2 weeks,6 days, 12 hours of time.
lol

[Monstorfab]

I need one of those for the carpool lane. Can I get that in a portable version?

[SimpleS14]

I thought it was trippy and unneccessary. I do like the touch screen content they have.

As for the pic of the two guys kissing....WTF?!?! I really did not want to see that. :|

[exitspeed]

That was awesome. but I played the arcade version like 17 years ago.

Seriously though that is rad.

[stiizy]

I thought straight up Sith when i saw that shit......

[Rey of Spots]

I was waiting for her to say "Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope!"

[Daniel.]

Cisco ftw.

This was almost exactly a year ago in India.

Looks like somebody forgot to lock and close this political thread...

[CrimsonRockett]

This isn't a real political thread.

Hologram does not equal politics.

[DUFFM4N]

[CrimsonRockett]
