Mo-Sys partners with VividQ to drive augmented reality

The work developed by both companies will improve the positioning of 3D models in augmented reality devices using computer-generated holography.

Mo-Sys Engineering, company that offers precision camera tracking solutions for virtual studios and augmented reality (Ra), has been associated with VividQ, pioneer in computer-generated holography for next-generation AR displays. This allows 3D holographic projections to be accurately placed in real space., and that users of future AR devices, like smart glasses, can explore virtual content in context with the natural environment.

"The possibilities and applications of augmented reality on real-time devices are barely being explored.. We are at the forefront of camera tracking; VividQ is at the forefront of computer-generated holography, and we're excited to work together to make some of these concepts a reality.", notes Michael Geissler, CEO of Mo-Sys Engineering.

Mo-Sys StarTracker is a camera tracking technology used in television production and other creative environments for applications ranging from virtual studios to real-time set extensions.. Provides precise camera location in XYZ space and with free rotation.

Computer holography

For its part, VividQ software for computer-generated holography is used in innovative visualization applications, from augmented reality wearables to head-up displays.

Holography, the holy grail of display technologies, is based on the high-performance calculation of complex light patterns to project realistic objects and scenes, for example in AR devices.

VividQ generates holographic projections that, thanks to Mo-Sys' localization accuracy, can be displayed to the user in the right place in the real environment. This is a great advance over current augmented reality devices, in which flat objects (Stereoscopic) do not match the real world. By presenting holographic projections in depth, the user's eyes can focus naturally while exploring the scene.

"Our partnership with Mo-Sys is key to understanding the potential of computer-generated holography in future AR applications., developing experiences in which virtual objects can blend seamlessly with the real world", clarifies Darran Milne, CEO of VividQ.
