Bringing Video Game Characters Into The Real World On A Holographic Light Field Display

This paper discusses the design and technical choices of a proof of concept migrating video game character that can move from a game environment to a holographic environment rendered on a novel holographic light field display. We pair these two environments with interactions that are consistent to each, using a game controller for interaction in the game environment and voice, gesture and face tracking in the holographic environment. Finally, we carried out a pilot study to assess the level of social presence, consistent migration and coherent experience in our proposed system.
