Bell, Verizon and Vodafone will host the first live transatlantic conference featuring holograms of employees in Toronto, New York and London, using multi-edge computing (MEC) technology over each carrier’s 5G network was successfully implemented.
Vodafone executive Giorgio Migliarina said: “Whether collaborating across the classroom, office, hospital or home, multi-party holographic calls can help people feel more connected and more productive. I can do it.” “As the availability of 5G and edge computing technologies increases, the smooth, natural motion of these holograms will become even more prevalent.”
The companies said MEC technology enables faster response times by bringing the necessary computing closer to the edge of the network, thereby ensuring more reliable and consistent holograms. It also eliminates delays that can be caused by multiple hops between different locations on the Internet.
Holograms are created using a single camera and MATSUKO’s patented technology, which combines a presence app on a smartphone with an XR (augmented reality) headset to instantly stream holograms, making it seem like people are in the same room. It creates a feeling.
The holograms were then streamed using spatial computing, an immersive technology that combines virtual and augmented reality.
The Transatlantic Conference and the technology behind it will be unveiled at the Mobile World Congress exhibition in Las Vegas in the coming days.
For this effort, the companies have come together under the auspices of the 5G Future Forum (5GFF), a group of global 5G leaders accelerating the delivery of MEC-enabled solutions.
In fact, 5GFF has lent its API to MATSUKO, allowing it to connect to Bell, Verizon, and Vodafone’s 5G networks. This API, called 5GFF’s Edge Discovery API, allows developers and independent software vendors (ISVs) like his MATSUKO to discover the edge closest to their end users, ensuring that their applications work optimally and Consistent service provided across mobile networks.
5GFF invites ISVs from around the world who are using or planning to use 5G MEC to join the organization’s acceleration program and collaborate with leading carriers. The program aims to shape the API development process and expand and interconnect the global MEC ecosystem.
