Imagine you could talk to your friend on Skype, not on the computer screen, but as if they are actually present as a  3D hologram. A life-sized pod, developed by researchers at Queens University in Canada, allows callers to do just that. The video cameras catch the subject at all angles and interprets them into a 3D video. This pod, called “TeleHuman,” can allow callers to see all angles of the other person. It is made up of a 3D projector, a convex mirror, and a translucent acrylic cylinder. Check out the video to see how it works.
