Against the backdrop of persistent pandemic‑related restrictions, cross‑regional communication has been severely disrupted. In this digital‑communications era, mobile phones and video‑call tools already grant us “long‑distance vision and hearing”. Even so, there is a growing demand for immersive, interactive cross‑location scenarios to sustain seamless social connections —‑ a need felt particularly acutely within news‑interview industries.

Today we are launching our holographic remote co‑presence interview system. Unlike pre‑recorded holographic footage, this solution projects life‑sized real‑world participants into remote studios in real‑time. Synchronised audio, facial expressions and body movements are rendered live, enabling natural‑feeling interactions including hand‑shakes and face‑to‑face conversations between interviewers and remote guests.

Developed by Shanghai CHINGMU Vision Technology Co., Ltd., the holographic remote co‑presence interview system generates dynamic 3D reconstructions of real‑life performers, merging audio streams and virtual imagery into a unified medium that transcends geographical boundaries.

Powered by 5G‑enabled 4K video terminals and holographic display hardware, the platform seamlessly links studios located in separate cities, delivering remote interview experiences comparable to on‑site interactions.

Co‑ordinated front‑end and back‑stage workflows enable friction‑free engagement between on‑site hosts and virtually‑rendered guests thousands of miles away. Blending virtual and physical spaces, the technology frees long‑distance communication from flat‑screen limitations and unlocks true real‑time three‑dimensional interaction.

The system also supports mixed‑reality cross‑location live broadcasts. Leveraging CHINGMU’s proprietary optical motion‑capture technology, virtual avatars can appear alongside real‑life interviewees on‑screen during interviews.

Using CHINGMU motion‑capture hardware and a virtual green‑screen stage, performers in motion‑capture suits drive virtual‑character animations in real‑time. The character footage is output as a separate chroma‑key‑ready video feed, composited into virtual environments and recorded synchronously alongside live hosts.

Core System Advantages

1. Break geographical barriers to cut costs and boost efficiency. Leveraging gigabit‑bandwidth 5G networks, the system delivers millisecond‑level latency. By combining 5G transmission with holographic rendering, remote guests and journalists can “meet” virtually, pioneering a new model for long‑distance co‑present interviews in the 5G era.

2. Redefine online social interaction. Holographic communication transmits high‑volume 3D‑video data over high‑speed 5G connections, creating far‑more lifelike user experiences and bringing transformative improvements to interactive capabilities.

3. Real‑time capture‑and‑transmission for seamless audio‑video fusion. Live‑processing and instant distribution of audio‑visual streams with millisecond‑low‑latency ensure fluid, natural conversations with perfectly synchronised speech, facial expressions and gestures between local and remote participants.

4. Open‑architecture interoperability. The system can integrate with AI‑anchor platforms, temporary shooting‑sets, 5G broadcast studios and cloud‑editing services. It extends coverage across fixed and mobile terminals to support unified visual command‑and‑control workflows and collaborative remote‑interview production.

5. Broad expandable application scenarios. Beyond long‑distance communications, the holographic co‑presence interview system carries transformative potential for gaming and e‑commerce, with further deployments planned across healthcare, defence, education and other sectors.
