Before we could get used to the thought of telepresence emerging into full-scale holograms that you could speak to, Infosys was just awarded two patents for (1) creating 3d holograms from a series of mobile phone pictures and (2) the transmission of holographic data over regular telecom networks without choking them. The company is claiming to bring these technologies to mainstream by 2010.
Combined, the two patents describe an interesting future of 3d holographic capture and projection between mobile devices - if it is done in realtime this could mean 3d video conferencing.
Any buyers?

Hmm Star Trek?
I wonder how will it look over our any of the present EDGE networks, a person with weird facial expression stuck on hologram while the network struggles to transfer some packets (read, buffer)!
