Using Artificial Intelligence to Generate 3D Holograms in Real-Time on a Smartphone

MIT researchers have developed a way to produce holograms almost instantly. They say the deep learning-based method is so efficient that it could run on a smartphone. A new method called tensor holography could enable the creation of holograms for virtual reality, 3D printing, medical imaging, and more -- and it can run on a smartphone. Despite years of hype, virtual reality headsets have yet to topple TV or computer screens as the go-to devices for video viewing. One reason: VR can make users feel sick.
