Holo-Gauze 3D holographic display solution comes to television

Run-to-gauze, Until now 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 a striking visual element in the British series Gadget Man on Channel 4.

The producers of this British series broadcast by Channel 4 are using Holo-Gauze 3D visualization solution from Holotronica both on set and in the studio AV and cameras to create stunning three-dimensional holograms on shoots, since it allows working 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 in dimension or size to produce 3D hologram special effects, since it is only limited by the distance of the projector and, in case it is required, for lighting.

Stuart Warren-Hill, founder of Holotronica MD and Holo-Gauze, has pointed out that “our visualization system is ideal for TV producers, as it allows you to create stunning 3D hologram effects that can be easily incorporated during filming, which saves time and money in post-production. We are very satisfied with our participation in Gadget Man, where we have created a striking holographic flower that will not leave anyone indifferent”.

As the producer of the series explains, Colin Byrne, “At first we weren't completely sure how Holo-Gauze would work during filming, given the large number of variables that we can find in the set: from the shape of the room to the ceiling fixtures or lighting conditions, But that was all when we saw how well the amazing holographic effects worked both on set and in camera and the value it brought to the editing of the shoot.”.

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

The 3D image was created on the iPhone using the Poppy 3D bolt-on device, that converts the smartphone's built-in camera into side-to-side stereoscopic 3D. Later, in 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 presented in operation during the EPIC show 3.0 by the famous DJ Eric Prydz at Madison Square Garden in New York (more details in the news published in Digital AV Magazine), which used a 20 screen×5 meters to create huge floating holograms on stage, as can be seen in the attached image.
