Hatsune Miku’s live performances may not long be limited to the stage – one particularly dedicated fan has succeeded in getting her to perform in his living room, and provided a video of the spectacle
The video:
The setup is described tersely as “set up in my living room at my house where a large scrim mesh is suspended across a metal pipe” – as with the full scale performances, a projection system is in use.
Miku herself is a recording of one of her live Sega performances.
For now the system is likely to remain horrendously expensive/troublesome to set up, though some rather obvious new business and “live” performance models seem sure to become popular should Miku fans ever succeed in setting up the systems en masse.

We're mere technological steps away from being able to look up her skirt while she does that
That's exactly why I'm studying at university right now! I want to make that possible!
holograms are already possible. i seen one in a houston museum as a kid. it was a baseball just floating in the air. you could reach out and grab at it, but your hand would just go through it. the only catch is there has to be a real object for the light to bounce off of. it's viewable from almost all angles. it has color and shape perfectly. this was nearly 15 years ago.
Pretty sure they're working on it already:

The baseball thing you said, isn't that considered more of a optical illusion? The one with two bowl shaped mirrors...
the baseball one wasn't done with the bowls, but it was similar. basically it was mounted in a steel case in the wall about 7 feet high. there was a vent like opening that faced downward and the ball floated in mid-air about 4 feet off the ground. from almost all angles it was visible. you could look into the vent and see bright lights and reflective surfaces, but i couldn't see the actual baseball. unlike the bowls one, you could swipe at it and your hand would pass through it. it wouldn't look like you were just going beside it like with the bowls one. but, yeah, i suppose it isn't a hologram in the sense that it could be an interactive digital program, but it was freestanding like in star wars.
TheBeast, you're talking about a cheap optical illusion, not a real hologram. It's not viewable from the top at all. = \
Or from the bottom, where we want to see. =P
simple hologram

Will it take long to have holograms solid?
Though I'm most looking forward to the development of the Fold System, as seen in Macross or GATES of CowBe.

Give this guy some more money so we get the techology faster!
Hey me2, but i also want to develop a 'real' Miku.
Hate to break it to you but everything here is prerendered from a particular viewing angle. Due to the nature of the projection system, you would need to reconfigure the cameras and rerender it in order to do that.
Give us the 3-D hologram. You know, "Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope."
Or whatever she said; it's been 35 years, and I don't remember the quote precisely.
Then one day, we will all wake up in a world where our 2D waifus can now appear in our living rooms literally.
I want the holodeck.
That won't be in our lifetimes. The holodeck on star trek uses particle accelerator technology to produce photons of light that decay at the exact position and frequency to produce light/color for the force field models that you can touch/interact with. It's basically a series of incredibly accurate shield emitters that make a person out of kinetic shield energy and then said photons are on them like a "shroud" that makes them appear real.
basically the holodeck is stupidly advanced. It's much more likely something like hotsim VR from shadow run would happen. Where you plug something into your brain and it makes you think you're experiencing it.
if you want to follow technology go to http://www.ted.com and listen to the presentations, you have for just about anything, there is a lot of news about implants to fake retinas for blinds and by extantion vr or augmented reality. They are decoding our senses code and by doing that highjack the senses with light implants. The matrix is at hand, more than probably a possibility in 20 years or so, maybe sooner if we put energy in it.
Okay, so we need force fields first... What news do we have from the military on that front? We've just about got power armor up and running.
You wake up and she's there greeting you in naked apron. Good future.
I want to join the naked apron alliance.
projectors? thats some primitive shit right there:
http://youtu.be/44-4SPIFB6I
its only a matter of time before all our dreams come true...
We are one step closer to Yugioh duel disk holograms.
Screw the rules, I have money.
I NEED the directions on how to do that, like, really.
I work with anime-related events, so I know some people who would die to put their hands on that technology.
It isn't that complicated. You need a fairly wide angle projector if you expect to do it in a small space (he said that's how he's doing it.) Aside from that, the screen he's using is just a mosquito net type thing which is cheap and easy to set up.
There are videos of youtube of people (was it the same guy? I can't remember) comparing the mosquito net to the expensive displays like what were used at Miku concerts, and in some ways the mosquito net is actually a better screen, but it lets a little more light through to the wall behind you. Or in his case, through to the floor - because his projector was somewhat above the centre.
Then you just need the content to project, which is what will take the time to make.
mass produce and sell it!
i bet this kind of equipment could cost some fortunes!
WTB Hatsune Miku dutch wife.
With the Japanese developing touchable holograms, I guess we could soon have a tangible Miku. Would be interesting to see that.
Here's an idea!
Shrink this down to 1/8 scale. mini projector plugs into your computer via USB. Projects onto 1/8 screen with a 1/8 Miku. Then develop a program that makes her interactive. Speak into a mic like a question and she answers it there in front of you. Also comes with dancing programs where she dances and sings to her songs.
develop this and have it all as a bundle to sell at around $300 - $400 and you'll be fucking rich.
And of course, a full sized version for those who are richer XD AWESOME!!!
What has Japan done?
Does this guy work for Sega? It would explain how he got his hands on the models. I don't think you cam just download it off the internet.
[Edit]
http://www.youtube.com/user/39diyMMDConcert
After reading his about profile, he says he isn't, but I wonder how he got his hands on the concert recording. :V
Did you see the credits at the end of Mikunopolis? :)
I didn't until I saw the video the response video that is linked to the video in the post.
Must Have!!
Humanity facing ecological and economical crisis.
Another world-wide war is hanging in the air.
Meantime, scientists are working full-force
to make perverted dreams of Internet dwellers, come true.
Don't you love being Internet dweller?:3
I Want Miku.... In My Room Heh <333 But Still This Is Awesome :D
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Some people should be shot. Not necessarily shot and killed. Just shot and left there.
Give this guy the Nobel.
i've desingned a barely cheap system for a full 360 degrades vertical, (and friendly pantyshot 140 degrades horizontal) proyection. but i dont have the fucking money to build it!
PS3 + This system = One Hell of Adventure
Vocaloids + This System =One Hell of Fun
Hentai +This System =One Hell of Fab
I found how the project was based since nothing is explained in video post ... ... ... ...

More incredible the solution with mosquito screen be more efficient than the screen dedicated (DILAD)

And of course use only with miku would be a waste rsrsrrs........
Ow, my ears. Can I have a hologram of a singer that does not suck?
Yeah, hahahah-
Fuck you.
I can't believe so many people like that retarded robotic voice. So many people with no taste..
yeah, so many people around the world of different cultures. i srsly cant figure it out why are there so many of these miku fans.
So you are hating on a computer trying to sound human, vs humans who sound like computers via auto tune. Hmmm right. Pretty sure i'd prefer hearing Miku over those rap crap or dance shit mixes or whatever you call em. Hell, i'd rather listen to original music: beethoven, bach and co.
I making one with Atelier Totori.
This is too awesome! I Love You Miku <3
I want to beat the shit out of and brutally rape anime characters in a Holodeck like environment.
What was the program or whatever he used for Miku and the projector?
For that video, any media player will work. Its from the Mikunoplois Bluray ending credits.
I see. The footage is from the release. I haven't watched it yet.
I just want to know where he got the video from!
soon in the distant future, possibly by the time I'm dead, Holograms will be everywhere and soon there will be no need for strip clubs (that is if you can program them to perform certain dances, and choose who to perform the dance not just Vocaloids, but any anime character even fanmade ones(that would be so awesome)).
can you at least give her a hug? :P
Behold, humankind.. Another further step to a fully functional 2D waifu...
Anyway, anyone know what's the name of that song she's singing? (Little did people know that in another life, she keeps on barging in her lover's club room and scream "Toshino Kyouko!")
Title of the video "Life-size Miku performs "Koi Suru Vocaloid" in my living room" say something to you?
Okay, you may now throw a knife straight to my head ala Izayoi Sakuya for not noticing that...
That looks pretty stable. Do they sell the raw video that they originally projected or something? I'd think if you projected a video of the projection you'd have a 2nd gen Miku dub, and it'd lose a lot of detail, you'd project the stage and audience, etc.
Also, this is not hard to do - it's an old stage technique; you could do something like it with 1800s tech. You could probably get up to some pretty impressive stuff playing with MMD and a black background.
You can easy make one yourself using MMD if you don't have a vid... The vid is from the blueray of her concerts.
just miku it
Now waiting for some porn.
trouble with that is if you watched loli porn im sure your neighbours would have you arrested
Do you watch porn in the open on a coach with the 50 inch tv facing the window or something? Without curtains? If people are going to do that I'm pretty sure that they'd, you know, make sure it wasn't happening somewhere that is easily accessible or seeable by other people. Just saying.
Finally! Sharon Apple...i mean impromptu Miku concerts!
America experiences large scrim mesh shortage.
wow im so jealous!!
You wanna look up Skirts, just watch the VOCALOID 3 AR concert, there were plenty of panyshots there. XD
But were getting closer and closer to the future~!! Fuck 3D-Television~! I'm waiting for the Holo-TV~!! and I bet it's less than 10 years away! as well as the AR-Room!! O_O
3D tv needs to come first thought.
this is the beginning of a new era
this marks the beggining of a new era
Oh wow I am so jelly.
Sharon "Miku" Apple it's here!!
Seens this guy before and his previous setup for live MMD is quite impressive. He's taking requests btw on songs to record.
want
Am I the only one who thinks the Sega Miku model is ugly?
Although I like the Luka one.
Still, this is pretty neat.
To be from a live performance you'd need a living being. It does not count if it's only the audience who're alive.
Learn something about Miku then comment. She preforms with a live band backing her up.
What was the name of the guitarist again I forgot ?
I know OSTER Project herself was on keyboard at one or more concerts.
Sarkazmo: WRONG
