Shoot tiny laser beam sensors from walls of room to know exact postion and movement of real person. Have this information fed to a processor whereby processor can send holographic images to interact virtually with person.
Likewise, other real person/s could be set-up in similar room/s at a remote
location/s to interact virtually with others, etc...

An honest first try. Sorry I didn't like it. |

Hmm, so where did you get this idea - Rimmer in Red Dwarf or the doctor in one of those Star Trek shows? Still, as phoenix says first try and all that. |

This is my 1st post, so pls be gentle. The laser idea is pretty good, but if anything gets in the way of the beams (like a pet) it messes the whole system up. Pressure plates would be more effective. Holograms are still not really realistic, so why not have walls composed of 3 layers of LCD panelling. The 3 layers display the same scene, but each deals with a different layer. Foreground, midground, background. The image layers sort of slide past each other should allow for showing the parrallax(right word?) shift effect, like in a good cartoon only better. It would also allow for better depth perception. If you were really good @ manipulating the layers, you could also have much more realistic effects like translucency, etc. |

The thing with light, is that it will keep on travelling on, unless something stop it. Therefor, a holographic person can not be made, unless you plan on letting the air molecules stop the light, but that would be stupid. |
