CNN’sholographic election coverageis fancy pantsy , but how did they manage to send 3-D 360 degree footage of practical newspaperman Jessica Yellin from Chicago all the means to the post ’s election center in NY ? AsArthur C. Clarke says , Magic . A magic made possible from technology Vizrt and SportVu with the help of forty - four HD cameras and twenty computer . Here are the details . On the subject ’s side : • 35 HD cameras pointed at the content in a band • dissimilar tv camera shoot at dissimilar angles ( like the matrix ) , to transmit the intact body paradigm • The cameras are hooked up to the camera in home base in NY , contemporize the angle so linear perspective is correct • The system is set up in trailers outside Obama and McCain HQ • Not only is it mechanically skillful trailing via camera communication , there ’s infrared as well • newspaperwoman see a 37 - inch plasm where the return feed of the conflate figure are feed back to them . Useful for a mislaid fuzz or an indecent boogar • Twenty “ computers ” are crunching this data in ordering to make it available On the HQ side : • Only used on two out of 40 - something total camera course that CNN has • Wolf Blitzer really loves it ( or loves Jessica Yellin ):

It ’s still Jessica Yellin and you see like Jessica Yellin and we live you are Jessica Yellin . I call back a lot of people are nervous out there . All in good order , Jessica . You were a terrific hologram .

• The delay is either minimal , or we ’ve gotten used to satellite delay that we do n’t even notice now • An raiment of computers learn the crunched info feed from the subject ’s side in purchase order to mesh it with the video from Wolf ’s side . • Unfortunately , it does n’t depend like the images are actually “ envision ” onto the level of the CNN studio so that Wolf can actually talk to the person , you have sex , in a face to face . So it ’s not quite Star Wars just yet . Only after computers unify the TV feeds together do you get a coherent hologram + person scenario
