World’s first Holographic Smartphone
There are more problems for camera maker Red’s first smartphone, the Hydrogen One. Company founder Jim Jannard posted today that the titanium version of the phone is delayed. The aluminum version still appears to be on track for an October release date. Jannard blames supply chain issues for the delay and the fact that the company’s outside manufacturers weren’t able to create enough devices to cover all the preorders.
In the meantime, he writes that all titanium customers will receive an aluminum Hydrogen One at launch. Once the titanium is available, they’ll receive it, too, and can keep that first phone. This is nice, granted we have no idea how long it’ll take to receive that titanium phone. The device has been delayed multiple times now. It was initially supposed to ship this summer, which was then pushed to later in the summer, and is now supposed to be October for preorders and November more widely. We’ll see what happens as we get closer to the date.
Red – Digital Cinema Camera maker company is going to launch their first smartphone and you can buy it from summer but those who have pre-ordered will be able to test out its “4-view” display
RED’s screen technology comes from an exclusive partnership with a startup called Leia Inc. Leia describes itself as “the leading provider of light-field holographic display solutions for mobile,”
This phone is having a “holographic” display. The technology works through diffraction, producing a light field illumination with a layer of nanostructures added to a conventional LCD. The solid phone’s 5.7-inch screen will have two modes: a regular 2D mode and a 4-View (4V) holographic mode which displays a “better than 3D image” and no glasses needed! You’ll even reportedly be able to capture video in 3D, Red’s own “4V” format made for the Hydrogen One. Beyond that, the new phone will also support modular attachments, such as a “cinema grade camera module” that captures RAW 2D footage in Red’s R3D format.
The phone is staggeringly expensive compared to other smartphones considering that it starts with a $1,295 price tag. But you will get some great future and you will have the world’s first holographic smartphone. Ant the cinema module is of particular interest because most cinema cameras cost thousands of dollars. So the idea of bringing the function of a RED camera into a modular durable form with a low price has the potential to attract a lot of professionals and creatives who normally would not afford the thousands of dollars needed to buy a RED cinema camera.
The price is likely meant to justify the camera technology, which is what Red is chiefly known for among filmmakers and other camera-oriented professions. At 5.7 inches, it’s also kind of big, and it will come with a 2560 x 1440 holographic display that supposedly makes images look as though they’re in 3D as you move the camera around.
