HOLOFIL – LCD Holographic Display

HOLOFIL – LCD Holographic Display

HOLOFIL is the award-winning holographic display device that is designed in Amsterdam, Netherlands.  Its unique design gives it a distinct visual appeal and offers the best in class visual quality for the holographic visualizations. The visual quality results from the endless research and development that has gone into fine-tuning different aspects of the device from an experienced team of scientists and creatives.

Applications

1. In schools/homes for making education more engaging and fun for kids
2. In homes for interior decoration and education (Use our Android app to create simple 3D animation content)
3. In events, conferences, and museums for capturing attention and engaging your audience using visual stories
4. In gaming, create interactive games using a Bluetooth controller (Build your own games in Unity, Unreal Engine, etc.)
5. In retail for product promotions by placing physical products inside the device and surrounding it with animations (mixed reality)
6. In healthcare, for showcasing your 3D data to your patients, such as 3D dental scans from dentists or educational demos for healthcare information.
7. In public places and waiting room lobbies for keeping people entertained with cool visual stories to convey visual stories with public messaging.

Software and Content

HOLOFIL uses content created using 3D models and animations. Straightforward 3D animation can be created using our Android app HOLOFIL-X or a simple 3D text animation software. For complicated content, you can use standard 3D modeling and animation software such as 3D studio max, Maya, Cinema4D, Blender, Keyshot, etc.

HOLOFIL-X Android App

Our Android app gives you the following ability.

1.  Upload simple free 3D models available on the Internet
2.  Export simple 360-degree turntable animations in HD resolution format
3.  Use these simple 3D animations to play in HOLOFIL device
4. If needed, download and install the app from our Android play-store from here.

Consider a scenario of home interior decoration where you are placing HOLOFIL in your living room, and you want to change its content every week. You can search for “free 3d models ” on the Internet, download the appropriate format, and create simple animations that you can change as per your requirements. Imagine decorating your room with different Buddha statues, museum artifacts, and other interesting 3D models from the 3D model marketplaces from the Internet such as this one.

Our 3D text animation software allows you to create simple 3D text animations (as seen above) that can be used to create interesting pre-configured, template-based 3D text animations. This software comes with an editor like MS Word that allows choices of different fonts, different animation styles, and other super simple features to use after small learning. If you know how to use Microsoft Word, you can use this software further. You create simple text animations like above, export it in MP4 format, load it on the HOLOFIL device, and it’s ready to go. If you want to buy HOLOFIL with a 3D text maker, choose the other available product for Oz Robotics which comes with a 3D text maker installation package from here.

As HOLOFIL uses an Android-based system, you can create Android-based 3D games if you are a developer. It can be further used as a gaming platform to create Unity and Unreal game engine-based 3D game development to hook it up with a Bluetooth controller to interact with the games. You can create interesting gaming environments by combining physical and virtual content inside the device to make it look super cool, like the game example below of Chicken hunter.

Here you see a HOLOFIL chicken hunting game designed and developed in Unity game engine and played using a Bluetooth joystick game controller. The joystick allows the hunter’s movement from left to right, and the four buttons allow different actions such as jump, shoot a bullet, run, etc. You can use any Bluetooth controller of your choice as long as the game is designed with its button mapping.

In the above case, you see a mixed reality setup, where the plants and flowers inside HOLOFIL are real physical objects and are placed inside the device physically, while the hunter and the flying chickens appear virtually surrounding them, creating a mixed reality setup making the game even more interesting and fun.
