im confused, how did they get a 3d projection on stage?

[shura]

japan uses a lot of their time, money, research, energy, and valuable resources in the effort to create the perfect 3D hatsune miku

[emanhattan]

lmao

[Sapphire]

lol people paid money to watch a projection of an anime girl who is basically a synthesizer nerds

Welcome to Japan I guess.

Is the tech out there to mo-cap and render this shit at the same time around yet?

i had no idea that hologram technology existed yet. I always wondered how the hell something can be presented without a platform like that.

[shura]

if you look closely you can see that she's not standing on a platform, but being projected onto a screen

[creamcorn]

holy shit in the first video as well

the crowd behind her is just a reflextion of the crowd on the front

[Jeinu]

yeh i think it's just a screen

the closest thing we have to real holograms are volumetric displays (true 3-d tvs)
but they're still tiny

I saw somethig like this in The Sharper Image but all it could dispaly was a single strawberry....it cost thousands of dollars but damn that was one REALISTIC floating strawberry. I swear you could touch it untill your finger went through the hologram

also, although I didnt like the juice singing haha  still this was a cool concert to see a cartoon character on the stage...I would go to one just to be entertained by holographic stage performers...aka the gorillaz one looked awesome but its gone now
