Patent attributes
This specification relates to an apparatus, system and method of projecting holographic images for a video conference, wherein a user may use the apparatus for telecommunication transmissions. The apparatus also includes biometric verification means for verifying the identity of the user using his/her biometric authentication credentials. Upon verification of the user's biometric sample, a keypad door is opened to reveal a concealed keypad and a camera door is also opened to reveal and release a telescopic camera in the retracted position, enabled for capturing an image (video including picture and audio) of teleconferencing attendees that are within the apparatus' field of view, where the captured image may be transmitted to a receiving holographic video conferencing apparatus, where the captured video image is projected as a hologram, with audio output provided via the speaker/microphone system.
