  1. HipWallpaper is considered to be one of the most powerful curated wallpaper community online. We choose the most relevant backgrounds for different devices: desktop, tablet, iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X, Sasmsung Galaxy, etc. Feel free to send us your 'Holographic Wallpaper', we will select the best ones and publish them on this page.
  2. Microsoft holographic computer, which allows users to work and design in a virtual 3D space. NASA even has plans to control rovers with it, starting July 2015. Watch Intel's Wild Holographic.
  3. Microsoft HoloLens is the first self-contained, holographic computer, enabling you to engage with your digital content and interact with holograms in the wor.

The hologram is a holographic photopolymeric film that has been combined with liquid crystal. The hologram has an optical property that changes in response to an applied electrical field. Preferably, the compact configuration of the monitor's components minimizes the required depth of the monitor, making the monitor ideally suited for desktop use. Radically light. This new class of holographic display combines revolutionary optics and software while being light in weight and price. Looking Glass Portrait works with your PC, Mac, or standalone to unlock a new mode of 3D interaction that is completely personal.

In June, Microsoft announced its plans to build a single platform suitable for virtual reality, augmented reality, and any other system that mixes computer-generated and real-world content.

At IDF in San Francisco today, Microsoft's Terry Myerson said that the Windows Holographic experience, including the shell used on the HoloLens hardware, will be made available as an update to the standard Windows 10 desktop operating system some time next year.

Currently, the HoloLens runs a specialized variant of Windows. Desktop Windows offers many of the same APIs as the HoloLens, but the 3D user interface that mixes existing 2D apps with new 3D ones is only available on the augmented reality headset. Next year's update will make it available to all, opening it up not just to Microsoft's standalone device but also to hardware such as the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive that provide tethered virtual reality.

Microsoft and Intel are also working on a spec for PCs and head-mounted displays that are able to support mixed reality applications. This spec will be released in December.

What is claimed is:

1. A display system comprising:

image-generating means for projecting an input image;

redirecting means optically positioned to receive said input image propagating in an initial direction for reflecting and diffracting said input image toward a second direction different than said initial direction, said redirecting means including a first reconfigurable holographic optical element having a controllable optical characteristic that is responsive to an applied electrical field; and

display means operatively associated with said redirecting means for displaying said input image reflected and diffracted by said redirecting means.



2. The system of claim 1 wherein said display means includes a second reconfigurable holographic optical element having a controllable diffusing characteristic that is responsive to a second applied electrical field, said second reconfigurable holographic optical element being configured to diffuse said input image in a predetermined diffusion pattern when in a diffractive state.

3. The system of claim 2 wherein said first reconfigurable holographic optical element of said redirecting means is positioned relative to said second reconfigurable holographic optical element of said display means such that an emanating surface of said first reconfigurable holographic optical element is nonparallel to an incident surface of said second reconfigurable holographic optical element.

4. The system of claim 2 further comprising a housing that includes said image-generating means, said redirecting means and said display means, said housing being substantially optically transparent in a direction generally parallel to an axis that is normal to a viewing surface of said display means, such that said system is transparent in said direction when said first and second reconfigurable holographic optical elements are in a passive state.
