With the right tools, you can learn about the world—and the entire universe—by experiencing it firsthand. Welcome to the future where knowledge is limited only by your imagination.
The technology behind this film includes:
Head-Mounted Displays: AR/VR
Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies can teleport the wearer into any virtual environment—from a tropical jungle to the surface of the moon—in an instant. These truly lifelike and fully immersive experiences make learning an enjoyable and social activity for children of all ages. Head-mounted display (HMD) technology can integrate real-life objects and present relevant information in a way that young minds can easily understand, blurring the line between education and fun.
Video Wall
Full wall displays take remote collaboration to a whole new level, making it easier than ever to interact with people over long distances in real time. In the film, kids from different schools are working on a common project, moving objects around and writing directly on the wall as if they are in the same room. The wall projects life-size video with zero latency, which makes their interaction seem very natural.
Artificial Intelligence Media
Seamlessly integrated into everyday life, Artificial Intelligence (AI) assistants are the perfect tools to stimulate creativity and problem-solving. In the film, Millie’s assistant, represented by a wearable device on her wrist, provides the information Millie needs whenever she needs it. But AI much more than a schedule reminder. AI technology can interpret how its owner is feeling at any given moment and deliver timely guidance throughout the day in a very human-like manner.
Internet of Things
By communicating with various sensors in the area, Internet of Things (IoT) devices can instantly collect and interpret the data as you need it. The kids working in the garden use IoT sensors and handheld devices to determine the composition and moisture level of the soil, as well as look up a suspicious-looking insect, without stopping what they are doing. Having relevant information at your fingertips will give productivity an instant boost.
Light Field Table
A complex chemistry experiment or any other classroom conundrum is a breeze once you visualize the problem. A holographic light field table can project any digital object into volumetric space so students can see what’s happening with their own eyes right in front of them. They can also manipulate holographic objects, such as chemical elements or workflow charts, making learning a very effective, hands-on activity.
Light Field Holodeck
Light Field panels on adjacent surfaces create a Holodeck capable of projecting media that can actually be experienced and manipulated in volumetric space. This technology can be extremely useful for remote collaboration where participants can join in using photorealistic avatars. It looks and feels like they are sharing the same space, seamlessly interacting with the object they are working on and with each other as they would in real life.
