A light field (LF) display system presents holographic content to one or more viewers in a public setting for digital signage applications. In some embodiments, the LF display system includes a sensory feedback assembly, a tracking system and/or a viewer profiling module. The sensory feedback assembly may comprise sensory feedback devices that provide sensory feedback to viewers of the LF display system in tandem with the presented holographic content. The tracking system may comprise cameras used to track the viewers of the LF display system. Based on a viewer's tracked position and/or tracked gaze, the LF display system may generate holographic content that is perceivable by certain viewers but not viewable by others. The viewer profiling module may identify each viewer for providing personalized holographic content and may further monitor and record behavior of viewers for informing subsequent presentations of holographic content by the LF display system.

Holographic augmented authoring provides an extension to personal computing experiences of a universal or conventional productivity application. A user interface of a productivity application executing on a personal computing device can be switched from a touch or conventional mode to a holographic mode, which opens communication between the personal computing device and a holographic enabled device providing a mixed reality system. A semantic representation of a command in a productivity application is generated as a hologram in a mixed reality system and the change to a content file from performing the command in the mixed reality system does not require a holographic enabled device to view or even further edit.

Presenting a three-dimensional (3D) holographic visual and haptic warning is provided. An indication that a first individual who needs supervision is approaching a situation is received. A three-dimensional (3D) holographic visual and haptic warning is presented to the first individual who needs supervision prior to the first individual reaching the situation.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for representing a transfer of a digital object using holographic images. User input is received that is indicative of a selection of the digital object for transfer from a sending device to a receiving device. Spatial attribute data is generated based at least in part on at least one of a distance or a relative orientation between the sending device and the receiving device, and a transition path is determined based at least in part on the spatial attribute data. Holographic image data is then generated based at least in part on the transition path, and the holographic image data is sent to one or more holographic projectors to cause a first holographic image representative of the digital object and a second holographic image representative of the transition path to be projected.

Aspects of the present disclosure relate to holographic display of content based on visibility. Low visibility of a 2-dimensional (2D) display with respect to a user can be detected. In response to detecting the low visibility, holographic content display characteristics of holographic content to be generated from the 2D display can be determined. Based on the determined holographic content display characteristics, holographic content can be generated via a holographic display of the 2D display.

Presenting a haptic hologram warning is provided. An indication that a first individual who needs supervision is approaching a situation is received. A haptic hologram is presented to the first individual who needs supervision prior to the first individual reaching the situation.

An apparatus and method for controlling operation of screenless elevator is provided. An apparatus for controlling operations of a screenless elevator includes: a display unit that displays a first image including a dial-shaped image; a hologram projection unit that displays a second image in the air, projecting the first image; a motion recognition unit that emits light to the second image and receives light reflected by a hand gesture of a user from the second image to recognize hand gesture of the user; and an operation control unit that controls operations of the elevator according to hand gesture of the user.

A light filed (LF) display system for displaying holographic content (e.g., a holographic film or holographic content to augment a film) to viewers in a cinema. The LF display system in the cinema includes LF display modules tiled together to form an array of LF modules. The array of LF modules create a holographic object volume for displaying the holographic content in the cinema. The array of LF modules displays the holographic content to viewers in viewing volumes. The LF display system can be included in a LF film network. The LF film network allows holographic content to be created at one location and presented at another location. The LF film network includes a network system to manage the digital rights of the holographic performance content.
