Holography will keep the memory of Holocaust survivors alive

The University of Southern California with the Shoah Foundation, impulsada por Steven Spielberg, are developing an interesting project with holographic interviews with Holocaust survivors in order to keep their memory alive for future generations.

The University of Southern California (Usc) next to the Shoah Foundation are developing a pioneering experience that, Based on holographic techniques, aims to keep alive the memory of all Holocaust survivors.

The idea is that those who lived during the Nazi persecution in World War II can narrate their experiences and record them to be projected in a holographic format..

To achieve the effect of the hologram, the whole body person is recorded from different angles and then projected with the system Light Stage.

The recordings are being carried out with a score of cameras in a set with 6.000 LEDs and a green chroma.

Speech recognition

Another peculiarity of this project is that the hologram will have the ability to answer half a thousand questions thanks to the technology used by Apple's Siri application for voice recognition..

The Shoah Foundation was created by Steven Spielberg a year after the filming of the award-winning film Schindler's List, and its origin is to preserve testimonies of survivors and other witnesses of the Holocaust (Shoah, in Hebrew).

The holographic material that is now being collected could be projected not onto a screen, but on air and stably, at the Holocaust Memorial Museum (USHMM), in Washington.

He also collaborates in this project Conscience Display.
