Indeed, holography continues to advance, and Microsoft promotes its virtual reality goggles ( Hololens ) as a tool along the way. Well, that's what some students from the University of Western Ontario did at the end of July, sending a hologram from one country to another (from Canada to the USA).

To make the person's hologram, it’s needed a special camera that captures the person's environment in three dimensions, and this information is sent to virtual reality glasses with which another person can see the previous person in great detail and with everything around him.

Medical students participated in the experiment, and they were able to observe in detail the hologram of the person's body parts, so that a doctor could attend to a possible patient from a distance.

This test is a sample of the future possibilities of holography. Well, it opens the field of possible remote medical treatment, and with more than contained costs, around 5,000 dollars.

The fact that the hologram is sent from one country to another is not so important if we take into account the current communication possibilities, and that in the immediate future they will be much faster (5G, 6G, etc…) still, what which will result in the benefit of these and similar technologies.

Holographic technology will also affect the many meetings that are held online today, and especially in companies, since they have the necessary financial means to improve the interaction between people by sending holograms, and that everyone sees everyone with much greater realism.

Holography technology will continue to develop, and become cheaper, and we will see it in applications that make sense to facilitate the "approach" of people.

And I suppose that bio-sensors will also be developed that are integrated into it, and transmit additional information to us about what happens with the people we have "on the other side".

This is another technological world that is developing fast.
