You’ll Never Think of #StarWars Holograms the Same Way Again…

Whenever you try to explain what the HoloLens does, or what the flip Mixed Reality means, you can always rely on one failsafe fallback: That scene in Star Wars: A New Hope where Luke Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi finally get R2-D2 to work and out beams Princess Leia, in all her blue-tinted holographic glory, asking for their assistance.

Most of us still see holograms as the stuff of science fiction, but the truth is that if you’re lucky enough to get your hands on a HoloLens they’re already a pretty solid-looking reality. What it isn’t yet, however, is accessible to the masses. As usual though, the adult industry can be relied on to push the boundaries in popularising cutting-edge technology. That’s what CamSoda is attempting to do with the launch of Holo-Cam, which they also compare with the iconic Star Wars scene above.

And while you might not want to see Obi-Wan and Leia in that particular light, you can read more about the future of sexy holograms and watch their (Safe for Work) video on the Future of Sex website
