Holograms: Closer Then We Once Thought
« on: August 12, 2021, 09:13:59 pm »




These people figured out how to use the "light tweezer" effect to make images. Now obviosly it's sensitive to blowing away the trapped particle and is size limited, but he made real floating images, I'd call that a sucess.  :-+

An explanation of the effect.

Why didn't you post Styropyro's video on the suspending objects, like diamonds in a laser beam from like over 4 years ago.  He was moving / positioning the diamonds around in mid air just by lifting the moving the laser.

That wasn't making images. The light tweezer effect has been known for a while, but nobody had a system that was fast and precise enough to make images.

I hate the nitpick on terminology here, but those are technically "volumetric images", not holograms. Holograms are typically higher dimensional images encoded in a lower dimensional plane.
