A novel 3D mixed-reality space and experience construction sharing system is configured to provide a novel part-holographic and part-physical object-based immersive user experience environment that enables an intermixture of computer-generated lifelike holographic objects and real objects to be synchronized and correlated to a particular physical space (i.e. as a “mixed-reality” (MR) environment) for vividly-interactive user experiences during a user's visit to the particular physical space. Moreover, the novel 3D mixed-reality space and experience construction sharing system accommodates a user interaction designer to construct and configure a mixed-reality (MR) environment and various potential user interactivities for a geographic landmark, a museum, or another tourist destination, and subsequently share the MR environment with other user interaction designers and users (e.g. tourists) who visit that tourist destination. Typically, the MR environment is visualized through a head-up display device or another portable electronic device executing an MR environment-visualization mobile application.

A mirror and information image display assembly (300) for a vehicle, a holographic information image display system (300, 106, 104), a vehicle (100) comprising such an assembly, and a method of providing image information to an occupant of a vehicle are disclosed. The assembly has a reflective layer (302) and an image display means (304, 306), for displaying image information to an occupant of the vehicle. The image display means comprises a hologram (304), and a lighting means comprising a light source (306) for illuminating the hologram.

A light detection and ranging system arranged to scan a scene is provided. A light source outputs light having a first characteristic. A spatial light modulator receives output light from the light source and outputs spatially-modulated light in accordance with computer-generated holograms represented thereon. A light detector receives light having the first characteristic from the scene and outputs a light response signal. A holographic controller is arranged to output a plurality of computer-generated holograms to the spatial light modulator. Each computer-generated hologram is arranged to form structured light having a corresponding pattern within the scene. The holographic controller is further arranged to change the pattern of the structured light formed by at least one of the plurality of computer-generated holograms.

A system includes a plurality of optical identifiers and a reader for the optical identifiers. Each optical identifier has an optical substrate and a volume hologram (e.g., with unique data, such as a code page) in the optical substrate. The reader for the optical identifiers includes a laser, and a camera. The laser is configured to direct laser light into a selected one of the optical identifiers that has been placed into the reader to produce an image of the associated volume holograms at the camera. The camera is configured to capture the image. The captured image may be stored in a digital format by the system.

A optic sight apparatus for a weapon that includes an electro-optical sight unit configured to project a reticle image for a sight setting of the optic sight apparatus, a controller electrically connected to the electro-optical sight unit; and a switching apparatus connected to the controller unit, the switching apparatus configured to transmit a sighting control signal to the controller unit to automatically change a current sight setting of the optic sight apparatus to a predetermined sight setting of the optic sight apparatus corresponding to the sighting control signal.

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.

A three-dimensional (3D) holographic display system includes a projector that generates an image with a form of spatially varying modulation on a light beam; holographic processor that performs a holographic method on the image generated by the projector; and memory device that stores holographic data generated in a process of performing the holographic method by the holographic processor. An amplitude of a light field is adaptively replaced by the holographic processor according to significance of respective areas of the image.

The present disclosure provides a conference device, a method of controlling the conference device, and a computer storage medium. The conference device includes a display, an image sensor, a holographic projector, and a controller configured to identify, by using an image data from the image sensor, a modification action performed at a target location for a holographic image projected by the holographic projector, modify holographic projection data based on the modification action, and convert modified holographic projection data into modified two-dimensional imaging data.

In some embodiments an augmented reality display is used for the displaying of the first holographic image at the center of a field of view and the second image adjacent to the first holographic image. In some embodiments a virtual reality display is used for the displaying of the first holographic image near the center of a field of view and the second image adjacent to the first holographic image.
