DEF CON 32 Creator Stage · Day 1 · Creator Stage
This talk, presented by Fernando De La Peña Llaca at DEF CON 32, delves into the groundbreaking application of **holographic teleportation**, or **volumetric video**, within the extreme and constrained environment of space, specifically the International Space Station (ISS). The presentation highlights the journey from initial conceptualization to the successful implementation of live holographic interaction, enabling advanced telemedicine capabilities for astronauts. It addresses the unique challenges of deploying such sophisticated technology in a low-bandwidth, high-radiation, and computationally limited setting, ultimately showcasing how these hurdles were overcome to facilitate real-time, interactive medical assistance and communication across vast distances.
