Aina, Oladapo. 2010. Application of Holographic Technology in Education. Bachelor’s thesis. Kemi - Tornio University of Applied Sciences. Department of Information Processing. Pages 67.
This research deals with holographic technology and its application as a tool to enhance learning and address perceived educational challenges. This research covers series of obscure strengths of holographic technology and discusses its applicability in education. Driven by the need to address some educational barriers, this work was conceived. The desire to rejuvenate and enhance learning process also motivated this work.
To fulfill the goal of this Thesis, some problems were identified and investigations carried out. First, the technical procedure and software requirement of implementing holographic technology is highlighted. Second, the advantages and beneficial application of holography in education are proposed. Third, this thesis identified educational barriers and suggests ways to address them using holographic technology.
Exploratory research methodology is applied in this work. This methodology is appropriate because it provides a basis for general findings through data collection. Exploratory research also allows researchers to develop ideas, assumptions or theories. Hence, investigations were carried out on holographic technology, perceived from a new direction and assessed in a new light. Secondary literature analysis was the technique used. The literature fields covered include holography, haptics, augmented reality, virtual reality, human computer interaction and 3D.
The results of this thesis are novel proposals on the use of holographic technology in different aspects of education. These include suggestions on the use of holography to enhance learning in various educational fields such as engineering, medicine, and archaeology. Holography as a tool to solve educational problems is also proposed in details.
