Holographic illusion pioneers Holotronica has launched Holoporter, a self-contained, portable unit intended to make the delivery of holograms more accessible for a wider range of applications with no technical knowledge required.
Holoporter features a one metre square base and is two metres tall. Holotronica’s DarkMat is placed on the floor and back wall, and a Hologauze transparent projection screen creates the projectable surface on the front of the unit.
The DarkMat tiles absorb 98% of light spill from the projectors and lighting, further enhancing the realism of the holographic experience and delivering viewing angles and audience possibilities.
The award winning Hologauze is the only patented and fully silvered gauze available, delivering “unrivalled” transparency, contrast and gain. It features a finer weave with double the reflective coating of comparative products, making it ideal for productions featuring 3D Stereoscopic polarised video.
Holoporter has been designed to be easy to transport and setup once in location. The product weighs just 70kg, with a lightweight aluminium frame that also features Velcro and magnetic fixings for easy assembly and to attach the audio and visual fixtures. It travels in a single, slimline flight case, fitting easily through standard door frames. The exterior can also be customised with company branding and logos.
“Holoportor is enabling holograms to feature in a much smaller spaces than previously possible,” said Stuart Warren-Hill, director of Holotronica. “The versatile and robust unit has all the elements included to deliver stunning holograms, with minimum set up time and requiring no additional infrastructure.
“This is opening up new opportunities to have holograms featuring in a wider array of environments. Thought leaders can also make virtual appearances in real-time at multiple conferences around the world in one day through true telepresence and magicians can perform the ultimate disappearing act on stage.
“When this is combined with Deepfake content creation possibilities, you could have legendary engineers welcoming guests to science centre exhibits and music icons taking to stages in their home town.”
Holoporter is available for purchase or hire from Holotronica, made and with all proprietary components made entirely in the UK, shipping times are kept to a minimum with a lead time of just one week.
