HoloPortion
A Giant Leap for Communication
Holoportation is a revolutionary technology developed by HoloForge that abolishes distance. By capturing and transmitting a person’s 3D hologram in real time, we create an unparalleled sense of presence, far beyond the limits of a traditional video conference.
This immersive communication solution enables more natural and engaging interactions, restoring the richness of non-verbal language for exchanges on a whole new level.

Our Holoportation system relies on a robust and proven technical architecture.
Using Azure Kinect cameras, we perform high-quality volumetric 3D scans. These data are processed and streamed through our proprietary HoloScene platform, hosted on Microsoft Azure cloud to ensure extremely low latency.
The hologram is then rendered at full scale on the mixed reality headset of your choice, allowing the user to see, hear, and interact with their remote counterpart as if they were physically in the same room.
The strength of Holoportation lies in its human approach. Unlike an avatar that interprets emotions, our technology transmits the raw video and audio stream of the real person. You see their genuine expressions and body language, recreating the conditions of a face-to-face conversation.
This breakthrough opens up endless possibilities for remote collaboration, immersive training, and unique event creation, as demonstrated in our one-of-a-kind magic show with GF Productions.
In the Services category, we received the Best Application Award at Laval Virtual for the creation of Holoportation technology.
It is a 3D capture technology that scans a person and streams their hologram live anywhere in the world. Using a mixed reality headset such as HoloLens 2, participants can interact with this hologram as if they were face to face with the real person, radically transforming remote communication.
The difference is fundamental: Holoportation does not use a digital avatar, but rather the 3D video transmission of the real person. You interact with your counterpart’s genuine image, expressions, and movements, not a virtual representation. This ensures a much more authentic, non-verbal communication experience.
The applications are broad. We deploy it for collaborative work (immersive meetings), remote training (presence of experts), and events where remote participants can appear in a spectacular way. Our successful collaboration with GF Productions proved its reliability and impact in creating unique and memorable live experiences.
GF Productions (creator of the Montreux Festival) likes to break the rules of entertainment. During our meeting, Grégoire Furrer wanted to push back geographical barriers during a 15-minute show.
Our proposal: a magic show in holoportation
When the hologram in front is the retransmission of a real person, well we really have the impression of having this person in front of us...
These experiences, made possible by the capabilities of HoloLens 2 and the power of the Azure cloud, allow yesterday's science fiction to become today's reality. It is now possible to collaborate remotely with a sense of presence. Sharing content, interacting with a person while being physically distant but virtually close is now a reality.
