Stanford's holographic AI glasses are coming for your clunky VR headset
Can AI, waveguides, and holography pass the 'visual Turing Test' and finally make mixed reality mainstream?
A team of scientists led by Gordon Wetzstein, a professor of electrical engineering and director of the Stanford Computational Imaging Lab, has been working on solving both the immersion and the comfort problem using holography instead of TV technology. The reason I mentioned the rhinos earlier in this article is because the Stanford team has just issued a new research report published in Nature Photonics Journal, showing how they are trying to exceed the perception of reality possible from screen display technology. "A visual Turing Test then means, ideally, one cannot distinguish between a physical, real thing as seen through the glasses and a digitally created image being projected on the display surface," says Suyeon Choi, a postdoctoral scholar in Wetzstein's lab and first author of the paper.
