Baseball prodigy uses holographic teleportation technology for batting practice: metaverse

Marcus Cantu //LSA 2026 // Texas Baseball Commit is the first player currently using this technology which is in use in the International Space Station.

“It is an amazing experience to see how this technology can be utilized in a baseball space; I’m very excited about how the future will look with this technology and incorporate it into a game!”— Aaron Schneider | LSA Head Baseball Coach

HOUSTON, TEXAS, USA, October 9, 2022/ EINPresswire.com / — Marcus Cantu is the first high school baseball player to use holographic teleportation. Cantu was holographically teleported into the Coach’s office, and the coach could coach him remotely. Cantu and his coach Mr. Schneider used Aexa’s novel technology, ” Holoconnect,” which allows users to project as a three-dimensional hologram into a remote location.

Aexa’s technology was used for the first time in October 2021, when NASA flight surgeon Dr. Josef Schmid, industry partner AEXA Aerospace CEO Fernando De La Pena Llaca and their teams were the first humans “holographically teleported” from Earth into space.

Aexa plans to release this technology during the last quarter of 2022 as a low-cost universal solution. Aexa will launch the technology under Aexa Tech, and the Holoconnect will be available for any Mixed Reality, Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, Smart glasses, Smartphones, and Tablets. The goal is to provide holographically teleportation technology to any consumer by allowing them to use devices they currently have. That way, the technology will be available to help to provide coaching to sports players in any remote area. This technology will also be used for engineering, education, and medical purposes.

Western University researchers achieve intercontinental holographic teleportation

The holoport technology is being explored as an answer to remote health care.

Researchers at the Western Institute for Space Exploration in London, Ont., connect with a colleague in Alabama to demonstrate holoport technology on Aug. 10, 2022.

The team demonstrated the holoport on Wednesday, connecting with Nathan Ream of Aexa Aerospace, who was in Huntsville, Alabama. Sirek’s company partnered with Aexa in Houston in April to demonstrate a two-way holoport to the International Space Station.

“We brought that space-proven technology here to Western so that our summer students could be working on it to push the boundaries for Canadian health care,” said Sirek.

The project is a joint collaboration between engineering and medical students at Western, including Sirek and Ana Luisa Trjos who are primary investigators, along with engineering student Jocelyn Whittal and medical student Adam Levchuk.

Jocelyn Whittal was holoported from a boardroom at Western’s Interdisciplinary Research Building to Huntsville, Alabama and then to Spain on Wednesday, where Fernando De La Pena Llaca of Aexa was stationed. Whittal is researching the haptic opportunities for the technology, or the ability to incorporate touching and feeling in the 3D holographic space.

“So in space, they’re very far away, and they don’t always send a doctor up with them. So being able to touch them and do a full medical exam would be amazing and making sure that they are okay as well as in rural communities to avoid evacuations,” she said.

Whittal said the cost of medical evacuations from remote areas could cost upwards of $200,000, and if a doctor was able to perform an assessment in the holographic space, a more informed response or course of treatment could be determined.

Adam Levchuk performed a physical exam on Ream using the holoport technology, conducting a shoulder examination.

“As opposed to doing this on Zoom, where he’d be small on a screen, he was a full-sized human hologram right in front of me,” he said. “There’s 3D motion to this hologram as opposed to a 2D on a Zoom call. It just feels a little bit more personal being in the same space as a hologram as opposed to a computer image.”

Levchuk says his next steps are to validate how well the shoulder examination went and hopes to be able to perform similar assessments with astronauts in space.

While Sirek admits that there are still some bugs to iron out and improvements to be made, they’ve proven the technology works and that it could provide the building blocks for opportunities beyond their target application of health care.

“We’ve got an interdisciplinary summer internship where we can have undergraduate students playing with this cutting-edge tech that can expand their boundaries and do things that they never thought they’d be doing in the undergraduate,” said Sirek.

“It’s exciting, it’s fantastic, and hopefully, this will inspire the next generation of people to come up with even better technology than this.”

Innovative 3D Telemedicine to Help Keep Astronauts Healthy

As Aexa’s CEO, I’m very proud to share this article published on NASA’s website. We are the first to perform the first off-planet Holographic teleportation in human history. Next week we’ll be the first to perform the first off-planet two-way Holoporatation in human history. Our portable technology has unlimited medical and engineering applications, among other industries. Next quarter we’ll make our technology public, so anyone can use Holographic teleportation as a new way to communicate. Enjoy this article:
