Holograms
Holograms are something that are incredibly interesting to me. A hologram is a physical structure that diffracts light from an image. A 3D image is formed, ultimately being a hologram. Light beams are beamed in from a laser or other source of light to form this three-dimentional image. The illumination of the light creates the image.
Often times when people say hologram you think of things that you see in movies or films. The record of rays of light are coming off of all windows and thn recorded to reproduce them with a data set. A graphic set is used with laser light and image films one by one to position a scene known as a hologram. This 3D technology is one that you think of from Star Wars maybe, or other movies.
Ultimately, several light beams are shining through an object at different angles, recreating this new image known as the hologram. Holographic display could one day be a thing. As you see in this video, there is a new phone that could be creating a phone to project 3D images:
The illumination of the beam is being reflected off of the object and onto the recording medium platform. Another beam is being reflected right onto the recording beam. The intersection of these two beams interfere with one another. This interference is what results in the virtual image of the hologram.
The future of holograms is only increasing. With technology skyrocketing through the roof with various interfaces and high tech and high def beams and lighting and imagery, these holograms are only going to be more advanced than ever before. The study of holograms is becoming more popular, and different companies are using it more often for various types of work or display. It truly is becoming a more popular type of technology used in real life rather than just Star Wars and Iron Man.

3D Printing
Immersive education has taken the initiative of manufacturing of 3D Printing. 3D Printing is a process in which an image undergoes a process and into a 3 dimensional virtual image. A computer aided design program is how this all works. The image is printed through the program and undergoes several steps to the process and through multiple layers. There are many ways in which 3D printing can work. One in which plastic is melted to mold and create the 3D product. UV lights are used to melt these materials, then intended to allow them to harden to form the new product.
The process and amount of detail that goes into 3D printing is amazing. There are several different types of 3D printers. But in all cases, the CAD file uses the model program or scanner to create the object. Structured light is an example of how the process of 3D scanning occurs. Here is an example:
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) are the two most common methods of 3D printing. These are both technologies that use melting or softening materials to make the layers of the object. Since 2010, 7 categories of processes of the Additive Manufacturing have come into play. These 7 categories are: Vat Photopolymerisation, Material Jetting, Binder Jetting, Material Extrusion, Powder Bed Fusion, Sheet Lamination, and Directed Energy Deposition. Each of these categories use different types of materials to print or form the 3D object.
Over the past years, 3D printing has become more popular among businesses and technology in general. We are coming out with new and exciting resources to enhance 3D printing, allowing people to purchase them and have them in their own homes. Therefore, giving them the opportunity to recreate certain objects. Which of course has causes controversy of what is “legal” to 3D print and what is not.
The different types of 3D printers out there allow for various opinions. Whether it may be one that is more eco-friendly or one that is more advanced using more detailed layers and deposition of materials is available. This technological development has the capability of changing commerce itself by allowing people to manufacture on their own. Buying products will no longer be necessary when you can do it yourself
