Tetavi: A Sense of Presence
3D holographic video used to be the stuff of science fiction.
So did the concept of having it platform-agnostic. And so did the idea of interactive holograms.
Today, thanks to Israel-based Tetavi, all of these have become a reality. And the technology continues to evolve, to something even more exciting for content creators.
Tetavi, founded in 2016,has created breakthrough technology which allows users to create and share 3D holographic content for both AR and VR. Performers, storytellers and creatives in general get to capture moments in time and share them wherever and whenever they like. And Tetavi's technology allows artificial intelligence to create realistic avatars for users.
Filmmaker Roi Lev, who is Tetavi's Director of Business Development, says that's just the beginning. More and more accessibility, he says, is coming in the very near future. And what's happening with Tetavi could reshape the ways our world creates and shares content.
During our conversation, Roi shared his experiences working on creative projects with Tetavi, explained how the technology works and offered some insights on what we might expect, in the future.
