The Next New Thing

I believe a type of new media that doesn't currently exist is using holograms to communicate with the use of our mobile devices or laptops. This hologram communication can be implemented into social networking cites such as Facebook, twitter, etc. While video communication is present this would take virtual communication to another level. The idea would be to have a software that scans each user and projects them using a hologram to the other user. The hologram would be a representation of the actual user so it would move and speak identically. This can be projected through the webcam or the actual screen. This software then can be used on social networking sites to change how people communicate. The idea is to connect people on the next level and this would be the closest thing to face-to-face communication without actually having to be there. Video communication is where we are based on virtual communication; hologram communication would make communication that much more real and personal. It can bring a huge change to virtual communication.

  1. Using holograms to communicate sounds like an interesting idea. Having face to face communication could also be useful for businesses across the globe.

  2. Funny enough, I actually thought of this but my main concern was that.. how can this fits into new media technology?... of course, holograms is a ground-breaking innovation and technology, really look forward to seeing more of it..
