DepthKit/
DepthKit is the first volumetric filmmaking tool designed to empower creators of all experience levels to participate in the cutting edge of immersive storytelling.
To achieve the Hologram video effect in the virtual world, I used DepthKit and Kinect to record volumetric videos and put the clips into Unreal Engine.
