2018; Holographic Skype (Electronics Club)

Introduction

We developed a Pepper’s Ghost phenomenon based holographic video calling application for Skype.

TL; DR –

1. Used Pillow library to extract the live video call feed.

2. Haar cascades from OpenCV was used to detect human faces.

3. We performed background removal using color segmentation and morphological transformations.

4. The final output was then displayed using a “holographic pyramid” to form the illusion of a “floating head”.
