Holographic images / Footage
Will it be possible to use holographic footage? Could you create the effect of an actual person standing in front of you (Not an animation)
If not can we use something that has this quality?

I am involved in an educational project that would really benefit from this if either of these scenarios were possible.
Thank you for any info!

It is definitely possible to have holographic footage which is viewed through the HoloLens. This was actually demonstrated on the very first day that we shared HoloLens with the world, with Terry Myerson being beamed onto stage (as seen through a HoloLens) as a Hologram.

@ChimeraScorn ,
What sort of rig was used to record Terry Myerson? Was it just a flat camera or something that did 3D capture?

It was a 3d capture rig. We will be sharing more about these sorts of systems in the future.
