*HoloKit
future of co-working
the problem
Conferences work at best, trough a face-to-face situation. Especially in the pandemic situation - nothing was more sought after then a normal conversation, with its full authenticity. Even in times before the pandemic, billions of euros were spent for buisiness flights, to enable face-to-face-meetings. Next to the money-factor, there is the enviromental factor - and this one is even worse.

our approach
With this project, we wanted to provide the next evolutionary step, in the topic of conferences /
co-working. With the help of AR-Glasses, and depth-sensing cameras, we created a futuristic scenario, were authentic face-to-face conferences / co-working
are possible, without the negative aspects mentioned in the first paragraph.
My parts included: Research, Illustration, Concept, Video.

*Research
become an expert
To be able to provide a plausible futuristic concept, in the first step we needed to become experts in the field of co-working, teleconferences, and the technologies of now & the future.

video telephony
Trough the research, we realized the importance of video telephony. It is one of the most essential part for meetings and co-working in the digital room. Nowadays, communication is there, but it is still not feeling close to reality.

*Userstory
part one
To make the daily work routine in the present of the user tangible & raise awareness about the problems of our topic, we illustrated a userstory.

*Product
four segments
solution
For the above listed problem, we developed a futuristic solution.
- HoloKit -
From technical point of view, it is a combination of depth-sensor, 3D-mic, and a camera. HoloKit consists out of four segments - 1 segment, for one wall. The output is a 3D-Livestream, that is streamed to AR-Glasses. This allows to speak in a holographic manner - Online conferences / co-working are now more authentic then ever before.

*Prototype
close to reality
To point out the closeness to reality of this project, we created a prototype. We were able to generate a 3D-Video. Unfortunately, due to the limitation of a semester, we werent able to optimize more, and work out the streaming to VR / AR-Glasses.
