Holograms in Your Home

Los Angeles startup Portl has unveiled a new device that adds an epic, extra dimension to your Facetiming and Zooming video calls. The Portl M is a table-top piece of technology with the potential to totally revolutionize everyday communications, particularly during this time of ongoing pandemics greatly reducing in-person meetings and conversations.  Essentially, Portl M allows you and the person that you're talking with to be beamed into each other's home or office as a hologram.  On their website, the company says you can call it "telepresence".

How Does It Work?  With Artificial Intelligence Plus

Both parties on the videocall will need to have the M machine.  The machines can beam a 3-D image of each caller from one M to the other M.  The key to the process is M's artificial intelligence (AI) enabled cameras.  The AI camera tapes you and creates a video in 3-D, sends it to the other caller's M and generates the hologram of you in their home or office location and vice versa.  The M is the size of a mini fridge.  Experts think this could be the start of something big in remote, personal communications.  M is designed to make you feel that the person you're videoconferencing with is there with you at your location and that you are there with them.

Other Potential Uses

The M comes with a lot of highly advanced technology such as a HD touchscreen, 1 TB of storage and 16 GB of memory.  It can be reserved for purchase and will be available for direct purchase in March 2022.  The company says it will cost about the same as a "good flatscreen TV".  Besides being used to greatly enhance videocalls, the company says it works for telemedicine, fitness, immersive entertainment and a lot more.  It beams the hologram directly from M to M without the use of an augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) system.  To take a look at the latest in AI, go to https://read.amazon.com/kp/embed?asin=B07KBBQ44J&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_F3FC4NB6PQWTQX75VRCQ
