This is the future of broadcast and communication.” “Eventually, PORTLs are going in the home. “It should be for everybody, so that’s what my purpose was when I developed these,” Nussbaum said. The company also has PORTL Mini in the works, a device for home use that’s one-fifth the size of the Epic model. He cited the example of a medical school that uses their PORTL Epic to teach classes, and how the machine can be used to not only display people but also inanimate things, like a medical diagram or a product in a store.Īt the Watches and Wonders trade show in April, IWC CEO Christoph Grainger-Herr and watchmaker Kurt Klaus used PORTL to beam into the Shanghai trade show from Switzerland as 4K holograms to present the 2021 collection and answer questions from buyers. Hologram technology’s popularization is mostly linked to transmitting artists for musical performances, but Nussbaum wants people to expand their ideas of what the technology can be used for. There are over 100 PORTLs out in over a dozen countries being utilized in a variety of industries. Wheel the device into a room, plug it in and it’s ready for transmission. “There’s an audience-facing camera that’s embedded in every single PORTL that sees the audience you’re being beamed in front of so that the person being beamed in who is being materialized will be able to see through the return-feed camera,” Nussbaum said.Įach PORTL is completely self-contained, making it the only hologram projection device that doesn’t require any external pieces or wiring. Appearing in front of the camera holoports a person - in this demonstration, across the room - rendering their 7-foot telepresence on the PORTL Epic. From across the room, a studio kit features a camera, lighting, and white backdrop setup. The device is a sleek rectangular box featuring a high-resolution flat-screen monitor. “And the person being beamed in can hear, see and completely interact with whoever that person is being beamed in front of in 4k volumetric resolution.” A post shared by HYPEBEAST can beam anybody from anywhere to anywhere,” Nussbaum told HYPEBEAST.
