8i
The Industry Leader in the Capture, Transformation, and Streaming of Holograms

Description
8i offers a comprehensive platform specializing in the capture, transformation, and streaming of volumetric video, commonly known as holograms. The system provides the necessary hardware and proprietary software to capture live-action performances from multiple angles. This captured footage is then processed using advanced machine learning and computer vision algorithms to fuse the data into a single, cohesive holographic video asset.
The platform includes tools for compressing these large volumetric files into formats suitable for real-time streaming across various devices, including smartphones, tablets, desktops, and VR/MR headsets. 8i facilitates secure publishing, storage, and sharing of holograms, enabling seamless integration into projects developed on Unity, Unreal, WebXR, and 8thWall. It supports both video-on-demand playback and live, real-time hologram streaming for dynamic interactive experiences.
