VentureBeat: Google needs a new name for its wicked Holodeck

  • DuaneDude1 · 1 month ago
    It looks a lot like a modern version of the 1955 technology Disney used (and still uses) in their theme parks. "Circlevision 360" is the term. In that version, it was not interactive. They had 9 screens spaced around a circle, with a projector between each screen (in the black space between the screens), aimed across the room at the opposite screen. They could film with 9 synced cameras mounted around one point to produce the films. This is really quite the same, but no projectors are needed since you'd use monitors.

    May I suggest the following name;
    "GOOGLE HOLOPLEX"
