SPEAKER 1:
Planet Earth from space.
FERNANDO DE LA PENA LLACA:
When I was a kid, I
was watching sci-fi movies.
Watching a hologram
coming from a robot,
I was like, wow,
that was amazing.
Thirty years after that
we made that possible.
SPEAKER 1:
A spacecraft.
FERNANDO DE LA PENA LLACA:
Well, my name is Dr.
Fernando De La Peña Llaca,
and I'm the president and
CEO of AEXA Aerospace.
We use the HoloLens to develop
mixed reality applications,
especially for training.
We work with
customers like NASA.
We were the first one
and the only ones
that completed holoportations
in space in human history.
We were selected as
a team to receive
the JSC Director Innovation
award of the year.
That moment, it was a
magical moment for us
because then we figure out
discuss a lot of potential.
This is the beginning of a
new communication technology.
SPEAKER 1:
Viewing exploded diagrams.
FERNANDO DE LA PENA LLACA:
We have been using a lot
of tools from Microsoft.
tools like the HoloLens the
best holographic computer,
a software developer
kit that helps us
a lot and also the
Kinect camera,
which is a great component
to capture holographs.
Our technology is based
on Azure servers,
is so powerful that we are
developing for
multiple platforms,
not only Microsoft devices,
and that was only possible with
the Azure servers and
all the developer kits
that comes with those.
This is going to be the
future to communicate.
When we went from phone calls to
text messages to
Microsoft Teams,
the possibilities are endless.
Imagine holoporting
the best surgeon to
any remote location to assist
with a complicated surgery.
Imagine that Air
Force has an airplane
that used to refuel and
if they have an issue,
now they can just call up for
the subject matter expert,
and that person can
assist them on real time.
This hololportation
is the beginning.
The application
goes from health,
energy sector, to the
Department of Defense.
This partnership with
Microsoft will take us to
create a new way for people
to communicate, to work,
to interact and socialize
no more in a
two-dimensional way,
in a three-dimensional way,
we just open a box of
unlimited possibilities.
SPEAKER 1:
Microsoft.
