Comments on Holo-Dek - A Unique Real-World Virtual Venue
The Holo-Dek center in Hampton, New Hampshire, may not quite have the same features as the holodeck from Star Trek - but when you see your favorite computer games unfold at human scale, you might just buy into their business. (Read the complete story)

"That's a great explanation of how an imaginary system on a tv show works. Could you maybe provide a little more description on the way the real one works? "

"Scott - I've cut-and-pasted a bit more. Better?"
(Bill Christensen 11/25/2004 6:48:30 PM)
"very tricky. :: you mention the Holo-Dek, and then you mention the Holodeck -- one real, and the other, in essence, fantasy -- without a clear division between 'em :: tricky and, perhaps, confusing, if one wouldn't notice this division ... :: but, indeed! they say that this site is "where sience meets fiction" :: no offenses are meant, herein, or in else"

"I can hardly wait for the perfect holographic woman! Journeys to new environments and exotic worlds might be nice too."

"I am a recent visitor to Holo-Dek and i am absolutley satisfied. the hourly rate isnt that bad, even for non members, the environment is very friendly and i even joined a Holo-Dek World of Warcraft Guild! The screens are about 6' by 7' or so they are incredibly detailed and run perfectly. Lag does not exist in this realm."

"was wondering what the rates are?"

"How about you make a star trek game were you are able to make your own starships and are able to walk around your own ship and beem over to enamy ships to attack them from the inside. OH! and let it have two player"

"I think it's great stuff. Thr problem is that people are spoiled by Star Trek's realism. You need to start somewhere!"
