New video conferencing in 3D at human scale

One of the many recurring fantasies of science fiction could become reality in the near future, according to the achievements of an investigator from Queens University in Canada.
The system, called "TELEPOD" replaces the current form of video conferencing via webcam by a cylinder of 1.8 meters, a convex mirror and six Kinect  cameras located in the upper area of  the structure, and a 3D system into the projector . In this way the user is captured and tracked in three dimensions, transmitting these images to the receiver, which can see everything from every angle of 360 degrees.
At the same time, the same researchers created a system called BodiPod, which under the same concept to generate a 3D interactive model of the human body and anatomy, to explore in detail, by choosing different layers or organs through the interaction of movement and voice

Currently the system is in the final steps and in discussions with companies for marketing
