Artist projections

Without using special devices, artist creates 3D holographic projections

Joanie Lemercier has developed a system that creates three-dimensional holograms without using screens or augmented reality glasses

Unfortunately, holograms as we imagine them in science-fiction-style movies Star Wars are not yet reality. What we currently know as “holograms” are just illusions that trick your brain using images in 2D to simulate the 3D.

Typically, this type of “hologram” can only be viewed with devices such as eyeglasses. HoloLens and other similar devices – and yet, they are not holograms, in its strictest sense. However, a French artist named Joanie Lemercier decided to improve this idea in order to create a unique artistic experience.

He added motion tracking to the image projection, creating the “no-logram”. What makes this technology different is that it can change perspective as the user moves around the object they are observing, tricking their brain into make you think that the images are really three-dimensional.

Lemercier also has other works involving projections that simulate 3D

Joanie explains that he has been obsessed with three-dimensional projections ever since he saw Star Wars for the first time. The main advantage of your system is that, unlike the virtual reality e Augmented Reality, it dispenses with the use of Headsets, devices or screens, making it a more natural experience, cheaper and much more beautiful too.

Swapping in kids: Artist's solution projects the image and then tracks viewer movement, so that the projection corresponds to the person's point of view.

Although the solution is very smart, that means it should only work for an observer at a time, since it is a projection based on the position of a single individual.

No video below, you can see that, despite this limitation of the project, the result is impressive.

Unlike other artists who create illusions that look like holograms, he says he doesn't want to deceive people, so he called the system "no-fool“. As for the images themselves, he claimed to be inspired by geometric patterns, repeated forms in nature and (why not?) in the very structure of the universe, resized at various scales.
