century of computing
第一个世纪,
were reduced to live in 2D space,
被局限在二维空间的历史,
as if we were machines;
就好像我们自己是一台机器;
in the vastness of time
在浩瀚时空里的这一百年间
tapping and looking at screens.
都花在了点击和注视荧幕上。
with each other?
到底出了什么问题?
of monitors and pixels.
荧幕和像素让我倍感约束。
to create a new reality,
us infinitely closer to each other,
无限拉近的现实,
人们才是万物的中心,
科技了解我们的所见,所触及所感;
senses what we see, touch and feel;
no longer gets in our way,
生活的一切,
to act more like people,
voice controls or biometrics.
语音控制或是生物识别。
holographic computer.
全息影像计算器。
3D holographic content
about a distant future.
car companies like Volvo
这样的汽车公司们,
重新定义了医学生们的学习方式;
redefining the way medical students learn;
to let scientists explore planets
让科学家们探索不同星球
or a better computer.
或一台更好的计算器,
from the 2D confines
cave people in computer terms.
the first stick figures in our cave.
画出第一副简笔画。
I apply to my work every single day.
the same perspective
we have ever done on any stage
所有的HoloLens 舞台演示中
to do it than here at TED.
更合适这场演示的地方了。
to be seeing holograms
we have also this special camera
我们还有另一部特殊的摄像机,
in this experience with me
to begin our journey,
更为合适的了。
all around us with this new lens,
去探索这个围绕着我们的世界,
from a brand new perspective.
这个计算机的宇宙。
is both marvelous and primitive.
即神奇又原始。
the different causes
to our physical universe,
in terms of zero or one,
governed by quantum physics,
量子物理统治的宇宙中,
both at the same time,
probabilities and shades of gray.
的基础之上的现实。
这两个世界是如何彼此碰撞的。
in our analog life?
生活里荧幕却无处不在?
give us superpowers.
we have the power to displace space
我们有能力操纵空间,
technology for entertainment,
and space displaced.
my lovely family in Seattle.
可爱家人。
the two-dimensional limitations
these same digital powers
devoid of 2D technology.
truly understands us --
the human experience,
looking at the problem
from the perspective of a machine.
去感知这个世界。
to sense our world,
试图感知我们世界的机器,
break the problem down?
then interact with reality?
与种种现实产生交互呢?
and biometric authentication
interacting with humans
or output information,
interacting with an environment
输出途径中
with the world via haptics.
the temperature of a virtual object,
感受到一个虚拟物体上的温度。
想象一下你在推一个全息图像
with equal force.
into a simple matrix.
something to the matrix.
都让我无比激动。
of understanding our world.
擅于理解我们的世界。
明显更为人性化的方式
your entire environment
拨动你周遭的一切环境。
understands our world,
the ways we interact,
than the phones in your pockets.
比你们口袋里的手机还要低下。
and their children
exploration of space
that understands this world.
real-time universal translators exist.
一个通用翻译器存在的世界里。

with our demo so far,
能将这次演示进行至此,
even more crazy.
Dr. Jeffrey Norris,
杰夫里.诺里斯博士之间进行,
喷气推进实验室。
你好,杰夫。
How are you doing today, Jeff?
过得怎么样,杰夫?
你能向我们透露一点,你的位置吗?
Jeff, about where you are?
事实上我在三个地方。
a hundred million miles away.
miles away. This is crazy!
这太疯狂了!
about where all this data
holographic replica of Mars,
by the Curiosity Mars Rover,
所捕获的数据之上,
as a place on Earth.
一样去探索它。
understand an environment,
and lengthen our reach.
behind screens and keyboards.
and the relay satellites
as if we were truly there.
仿佛我们置身其间。
on our mission
一小组科学家们
a little more familiar,
as humans should.
with making it just like being there.
to the virtual,
in a rock just by touching it.
感受到石头的矿物质。
to join us in taking the next,
一起迈向下一步,
on the TED stage today.
在TED的舞台上。
where we interacted,
that will enable us to return
能让我们回归这一人性,
where we are today --
inside this 2D world
what it feels like
I have some questions.
我还有些问题。
some talk in the press.
then we have a straight answer.
因此我们也能获得直接的回答。
between the demos
who buys the product will get?
任何购买这个产品者都能体验到吗?
we've been receiving
I haven't answered that question.
你会发现我从来没回答过。
it's the wrong question to ask.
这是一个错误的问题。
holograms to someone for the first time,
对某人展示全息影像时,
"What's the size of your television?"
“你的电视机是多少寸的?”
is almost irrelevant.
is the density of lights,
is of the things that you see.
角分辨率取决于你所看到的事物。
is wearing a HoloLens.
on it than our eye. Right?
摄像机的镜头有别于人眼,对吗?
than the human eye is.
that show up radially
can I get in a given volume?
我又能看到有多少?
on this HoloLens as I will on that one.
和摄像机上那台是一样的。
a much wider view of the world, right?
对吗?
I told you he'd show up.
我说过他会出现的。
but I really wasn't sure what.
但不知道是会是什么事情。
has a wider field of view
摄像机的镜头视野
of the holograms that you see,
全息影像的角分辨率,
I'll get to you in a minute --
杰夫我很快会找你的——
mapping the stage --
测绘这个舞台——
并带回家,
at about five frames per second,
都会对5条边缘进行即时扫描,
that we call spatial mapping.
and you'll start placing them
你可以开始摆弄它们
to get something on my head
我们想将戴在我头上的东西,
无线连接技术,
that usually brings all conferences down,
of trying to do this live.
at five frames per second
of wireless in an environment like this,
and the one on my head,
之间所见的影像,
are coming from this HoloLens,
都来自于这台HoloLens,
beautiful things on the screen.
这些美丽的东西。
in a room across the street.
同时你在马路对面的房间内。
with holograms, you have sight
在全息影像里,你能看到
you don't have smell.
that these technologies
in multiple parts of our work at NASA.
都有用到它。
the ways that we explore Mars.
on the space station.
Thank you very much.
非常谢谢你。
Thank you so much.
非常感谢。
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Alex Kipman - InventorWith his latest invention, HoloLens, Kinect creator Alex Kipman has opened a virtual holographic universe for users to explore -- and he may have changed the face of computing forever.
Why you should listen
In 2001, after graduating from RIT, Technical Fellow and inventor Alex Kipman joined Microsoft. In 2008 he created Kinect, the motion controller that revolutionized gaming and became the fastest-selling consumer device of all time, selling one million units on its first day of release.
Now Kipman has unveiled HoloLens, a jaw dropping device that turns everyday environments into interactive holographic worlds, mixing digital content right into our world. In addition to marking Microsoft's first foray into HMDs, HoloLens has the potential to turn computing as we know it inside out
