Meta filed a patent for hologram-like ‘3D conversations’

Meta filed a patent for hologram-like ‘3D conversations’ | Design, Science and Technology | Scoop.it

Ever since Star Wars first showed space wizards talking to holograms, calling someone and chatting with their 3D simulacrum has become a staple of science fiction. But based on a patent application published in January, it sure looks like FacebookMeta is trying to make 3D conversations a reality right now — even if not quite the way George Lucas envisioned it.

With the disclaimer that many patents never end up becoming an actual product, the patent does hint at how Meta envisions the future of communication.

What’s the patent about?
Meta, then Facebook, filed a Patent Application in 2020 titled 3D Conversations in an Artificial Reality Environment. Specifically, the application outlines a pipeline for capturing and transmitting 3D representations of callers, “allowing conversation participants to appear as if face-to-face.”

Diamaris Rios's curator insight, April 10, 2017 1:51 AM
Social media as a whole is growing every day. For example, once it hits 12am, snapchat releases new filters. The future of social media is ever growing. The topic of this article is the rise of music within social media platforms. The main reasons of this rise is because music within social media does not only improve advertisement, but also improves the relationship between the artist and their fan base. Being able to connect with their fans through social media is an easy way to interact. The author gives a supportive view of this new aspect of social media. They include what it will do for music label records, social media websites, etc. This rise in music within social media could change the way we listen to music forever.

News On Facebook: How Social Media Is Changing News Consumption

News On Facebook: How Social Media Is Changing News Consumption | Design, Science and Technology | Scoop.it

Almost half of all adult Facebook users said that they “never” get news on the social network, which amounts to 30% of the adult U.S. population.

Most of those who find news on Facebook are not actively seeking it, according to the study data. Rather, some 78% said that it happened inadvertently -- they were on Facebook for another reason, and a news tidbit just happened to be featured in their newsfeed. Only 22% said they were actively looking for news on their newsfeeds.

Those who consume news on Facebook tend to be younger, the same age group that is much less likely to be engaged with news on other platforms.

The study also found that news consumption on Facebook did not replace other news-consumption activities.

I love these pompous graphics images. When you have to scroll, you know their are important. Consumer behavior has always been key. At least for the marketers.

 

Newspapers saw early social media as a threat. Now they need to be friends with monsters like Facebook. Content is king. Distribution is everything. If you are a newspaper. Probably consumer behavior (and consumtion particulary) should be on top of every newspaper agenda.

The report analyzed the top 25 countries globally and top five countries per region based on impressions.
