00:00Good afternoon, everybody. My name is Dennis. I'm from Hula Industries and Partner Tech, and I would like to talk
00:07a little bit about magic today.
00:10Not real magic, like tech magic, and we are proud to be here at Viva, and you can see and
00:16actually can try out by yourself our solution here.
00:20So, who has seen of you Minority Report, the movie?
00:27Okay, quite a few. Good, good, good. Actually, we take this, what they do in Minority Report, we bring here
00:33at Viva Tech to reality.
00:35To make a hologram today is not very complicated. You have seen this for 10 years already.
00:43So, what is now new is that we bring the hologram to be touchable.
00:48So, it works like a normal touchscreen. I know it's very difficult to say this in France, but it works
00:55like a McDonald's touchscreen when you order your cheeseburger.
00:58Okay? I know, my favorite is also Forgras, but actually, McDonald's teachers how to use this touch kiosk.
01:06So, it's the same way how it works, just that it's completely contactless, touchless, in the air.
01:14So, you don't touch anything, but you still, it still acts like a touchscreen.
01:20Okay.
01:23Here we go.
01:24So, a little bit about this technology, actually.
01:27This technology idea came from 2019 already, and then 2020 when COVID actually all hit us.
01:34Actually, it became a blast, and the R&D team was speeding up to bring this up to real life.
01:41So, we are live in real installations since year one, since 2020.
01:47Since then, we were continuously improving this solution to a stage which we are having here.
01:54So, very quickly, we identified Medical as one of the key usages of this new, brand new technology.
02:03So, before I talk about that, quick explanation how this works.
02:08Hologram, as I said, it's easy.
02:10A lot of companies can do this.
02:12What we do is actually, we put an infrared layer over the hologram, and then we triangular where the finger
02:21is breaking the light.
02:23So, this is the simple explanation.
02:25I'm not a tech guy, so I won't understand more.
02:27So, unfortunately, I cannot release more.
02:29But what we else do is that we check the speed of touch, and we check also the thickness of
02:37the object which is passing through.
02:39The reason for that is simple.
02:41One thing is we never want a fly or any insect passing the touch will react on the touch.
02:49The second thing is we have applications already out there, for example, in the gambling industry, in the casinos in
02:55Las Vegas, where we installed at the bars.
02:58Whenever you use the finger, we activate the touch.
03:01Whenever you take the drink and pass the hologram, there should be no touch transaction.
03:09Back to the medical, in hospitals in the U.S., every day, there's more than 25 persons infected by any
03:19viruses which are around.
03:21So, disinfection and gem-free environment is one of the largest things what actually hospital IT guys are looking after.
03:30So, here, holographic touch can play a very major role.
03:35We already made patient registration, not only at hospitals, but also at already doctors.
03:42We have time and attendance for the staff that they do not need to touch any touchscreens or any other
03:52keyboards or whatever.
03:53We actually are providing now in July in Miami at the medical show.
04:01We're going to show the nurse cart, fully holographic, that there is no disinfection needed because we simply touch in
04:11the air.
04:11Also, we have projects for surgery rooms because, same thing, there is actually no touchpoint.
04:20So, the doctor or whoever is doing the operation can still use a touchscreen, get latest information, etc.
04:30Talk a little bit about the future, what is next.
04:33It works already in the lab.
04:35So, first of all, we do eye tracking.
04:37Eye tracking we do to adjust the hologram to the exact size of the user.
04:44The second thing we do is we're going to add touch haptics.
04:48What does it mean?
04:49It means you touch in the air and you're going to feel it at your finger that you touch something.
04:55So, we're going to present this back in Paris because we simply love Paris to the world public.
05:01September 20 at the retail week here in Paris, here in this Port de Versailles in Hall No. 4.
05:10Quickly, one more minute, spending on other use cases.
05:14We can do any size of the holographic touch.
05:18Here on our booth, we show you a retail application with 250 millimeters.
05:24We can go back to 10 centimeters to make it small.
05:27We can go as big as 1 meter 60 in the hologram to make it really big.
05:33For example, think about the dinosaur in a museum and let the kids play with it.
05:39Let it activate it.
05:40Let it zoom in, zoom out.
05:43Our technology does not need any integration.
05:48So, basically, we can connect to any of your private laptops and we turn your private laptop to a holographic
05:55touchscreen in the air.
05:57So, you can open Google Earth and you can start zooming in and out and you can find your own
06:02house.
06:04What we show here, as I said before, is a retail application.
06:09So, here, actually, I was presenting to Viva.
06:12I wanted to show the space shuttle.
06:14Maybe you have seen the latest Picard from Star Trek.
06:19So, they actually operate the whole space shuttle with holographic touch.
06:24Unfortunately, Viva rejected because they said nobody of our visitors at Viva Technology knows how to fly the Starship, so
06:32I should bring something more easy.
06:33So, actually, we brought a self-checkout solution, which you all know from your local supermarkets, that you can check
06:41out on a holographic touchscreen.
06:45Thank you very much for your attention.
06:47For any questions, I'm here.
06:52Maybe there are questions from the audience.
06:54Yes, yes, yes, sure.
06:54Let's have a question.
06:55Thank you.
06:55Thank you very much, Dennis, for the pitch.
06:59Thank you.
07:00Yeah, so that's very interesting.
07:01So, there are a lot of applications for this holographic technology going forward, right?
07:05Absolutely.
07:06Actually, there are two major use cases.
07:09Okay.
07:09One is gem-free touchless, anything where we need a really big hygiene.
07:15Okay, so gem-free touchless.
07:17Right.
07:17The second is anything where we need to have a higher user interaction, right?
07:25So, think about museums, think about retail products put in the air, and you can get more information by touching
07:31the sports shoe or whatever.
07:33Okay, so it's really, I mean, it literally is, it's a holographic image that interacts with the fingers.
07:38Absolutely.
07:39All right, all right.
07:40And so, for example, people could use it, I don't know, to lock their houses with, or, you know.
07:45We have, well, we have indeed a project where a company wants to do private doorbells with hologram.
07:51Okay.
07:53Except I hope they don't have a power cut.
07:54Well, we don't question so much that use case.
07:59We love to sell also our plates.
08:01Okay, well, listen, we're out of time.
08:02Thanks very much, Dennis.
08:03Thank you.
