scfi fiction or reality ( does any one of these devices have science base)

[nec209]

First I don't know how these devices work or what is holding back these devices .It is very much in TV shows and movies the scfi !! My take is it be 50 years or more to we have it and still some of the devices may be scfi and have no science base.

 

It will be cool if we had these devices but again I do not know how those devices work or if they have any science base.

 

1.Holographic like in star trek or star wars Princess Leia

2.Holographic storage

3.Molecular assembler

 

Is any of these device scientifically possible and what is the engineering problems? I know with a laser gun or phaser like in star trek the main problem is a material problem and battery to have a battery smaller than you fist that can hold 2 megawatts of power and material that will not over head and brake do to the laser .

 

But the molecular assembler ,holographic storage or holographic like Princess Leia no idea how it works or what is the engineering problem?

Already have them, there is even a holographic entertainer in Japan

2.Holographic storage

 

I'm not sure what you mean by this

 

3.Molecular assembler

IBM Research page on Bacebook linked this around Xmas http://physicsworld.com/cws/article/news/44633 and the last one is a refreshable hologram. The singer differs from the hologram as the singer is a 3D Anim projected but remains a 2D rendering where the holograph is an attempt at 3D projection. The link also covers a few items related to molecular assembling I guess maybe.

I'm fairly certain the talk about 'resequenced photons' is pure fiction without the science.

Maybe they meant to say "re-photonned sequences."

What do you mean by holographic ? The only holographic that looks like true holographic is this

 

 

 

 

All 2 are fake and not true holographic.Well a true holographic will look like that but they are fake to look like a holographic.

 

 

What is Holographic storage?

 

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holographic_storage

 

 

 

Holographic data storage is a potential replacement technology in the area of high-capacity data storage currently dominated by magnetic and conventional optical data storage. Magnetic and optical data storage devices rely on individual bits being stored as distinct magnetic or optical changes on the surface of the recording medium. Holographic data storage overcomes this limitation by recording information throughout the volume of the medium and is capable of recording multiple images in the same area utilizing light at different angles.

 

Additionally, whereas magnetic and optical data storage records information a bit at a time in a linear fashion, holographic storage is capable of recording and reading millions of bits in parallel, enabling data transfer rates greater than those attained by optical storage

 

By looking at that web site it seems it records by using pattern of laser beems and adjusting the reference beam angle so 0 bit may have reference that looks in shape than 1 bit reference .So by using the 2 adjusting laser pattern you can read and record using 0's and 1's .
