'Holoportation' demo makes live-video holograms look easy

Last June Microsoft showed off its HoloLens tech that created holograms from live video. Now it’s putting that into practice and giving it an official name: Holoportation. It uses multiple 3D cameras to capture a subject from all angles, creating a “temporally consistent model” that can mimic the feeling of someone being in a room with you. During a TED Talk,Alex Kipman used it to virtually meet with a colleague in front of a Mars backdrop, but this lab demo from Microsoft Research shows something a bit more realistic….

The founder of Oculus just hand-delivered the very first Oculus Rift to Alaska


Palmer Luckey, founder of Oculus, is trying to get warm. “They have real buildings here in Alaska, I’m glad to report,” Luckey told Polygon. He had taken the time to travel to Anchorage two days before the Oculus Rift’s official launch to hand-deliver the first retail Oculus to a very surprised buyer named Ross Martin.


It all seems a bit bonkers, but you can watch the video for yourself.


“Last morning I got an e-mail that was very nondescript and low-key, and it just said that ‘hey we want to ship your…

Guess Who Else is in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice


This article contains Batman v Superman spoilers.


This weekend, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice stands at an interesting pop culture crossroads. Critically exiled to the depths of low Rotten Tomatoes scores that are usually reserved for the latest Transformers movie, and also suffering from a relatively low CinemaScore from audiences with a “B,” the film is nevertheless a massive box office success story. The film is projected to open at over $170 million this weekend, making it the biggest opening for a DC…

The Conjuring 2 Trailer Is Suspenseful, Terrifying, and Dark


Horror movies are really a dime a dozen. While the genre is produced almost ad nauseum, there are few titles that succeed in truly terrifying audiences. One of the most consistently scary horror creators is none other than James Wan. In addition to directing the original Saw film, Wan also directed the massively successful and truly terrifying Insidious films, as well as The Conjuring. Now Wan is stepping back into the world of the Lorraine and Ed Warren with The Conjuring 2.

VW Misses Initial Deadline For US Diesel Fix, Gets Extention For April 21




In February, US District Judge Charles Breyer ruled that “six months is long enough” for VW to come up with a diesel emissions fix, but the automaker failed to comply.


The initial deadline expired on Thursday, March 24, and Breyer gave Volkswagen and US regulators until April 21 to come up with a plan.

If no deal is reached by that date, the judge will consider holding a trial this summer about the 580,000 diesel-powered vehicles that were sold in the US and equipped with emissions cheating devices found to emit up to…

The research is based on 110 million iPhones that were in active use in the U.S. last year, according to Sensor Tower and data from Consumer Intelligence Research Partners. The surprising part is how much more was spent on games compared to the second-highest grossing category.

Fifty years ago, Ford famously took all three podium positions at Le Mans. It was the first time an American automaker had claimed an overall victory, completely dominating the event. Eventually Ford lost traction with its road racing program, and the GT40 became a piece of racing lore. Despite the GT’s return in 2005, it wouldn’t become a full-fledged racing machine until this year’s shot at Daytona.
