Holo-Gauze 3D holographic visualization solution hits TV

Holo-Gauze, so far the only solution on the market capable of working with 3D polarized projection systems with a minimum of two projectors developed by Holotronica MD, is being successfully used as an impact visual element in the British series Gadget Man on Channel 4.

The producers of this British series that broadcasts Channel 4 are using the Holo-Gauze 3D visualization solution Holotronica both on set and in the AV studio and cameras to create stunning three-dimensional holograms in the shoots, because it allows you to work with 3D polarized projection systems that use a minimum of two projectors (so far the only one on the market), although the system can also produce credible 2D holograms using a single projector.

The Holo-Gauze display has no limit on dimension or size to produce special effects of 3D holograms, because it is only limited by the distance of the projector and, if required, by enlightenment.

Stuart Warren-Hill, founder of Holotronica MD and Holo-Gauze, "Our viewing system is ideal for TV producers, because it allows you to create stunning 3D hologram effects that can be easily incorporated during shooting, saving time and money in post-production. We are very pleased with our participation in Gadget Man, where we have created a striking holographic flower that will not leave anyone indifferent".

As the show's producer explains, Colin Byrne, "at first we weren't completely sure how Holo-Gauze worked during filming, given the large number of variables we can find on set: from the shape of the room to the ceiling accessories or lighting conditions, but it all stayed on that when we saw how well the amazing holographic effects worked on both the set and the camera and the value it brought to the editing of the shoot".

Holo-Gauze has also been used to perform a 'holographic selfie' in the last episode of the series, creating a 3D hologram of TV presenter Jason Bradbury as part of the so-called 'selfie challenge' of the final episode.

The 3D image was created on the iPhone using the Poppy 3D bolt-on device, that turns the built-in camera into the smarphone into stereoscopic 3D from side to side. subsequently, at the Gadget Show studio, the image becomes a 3D holographic effect when projected onto a Holo-Gauze polarized projection screen through two projectors with polarizing filters.

This system was first introduced in operation during the EPIC show 3.0 by famous DJ Eric Prydz at Madison Square Garden in New York (more details in the news posted in Digital AV Magazine), who used a screen of 20×5 meters to create huge floating holograms on stage, as can be seen in the attached image.
