The global strategic layout for 6G R&D has been in full swing. The United States began 6G research in 2018. The preliminary research included research on 6G chips, and carried out research and practice in air-space-Haiti integrated communication, especially satellite Internet communication. The South Korean government has put forward the goal of "leading the commercialization of 6G" and plans to achieve the world's first 6G commercial use in 2028. Japan released the B5G promotion strategic goal to complete the 6G basic technology research in 2025 and commercialize it in 2030.

China is at the forefront of 5G R&D, application, construction and other fields in the world. It has begun to lay out the sixth-generation mobile communication (6G) network technology reserves, and has long-term promoted the "6G Network Architecture Vision and Key Technology Outlook" and "6G Network Security Vision Technology Research" The series of white papers such as "Report" and "White Paper on 6G Overall Vision and Potential Key Technologies" also summarize the overall vision for the sustainable development of 6G technology.

In the "White Paper on 6G Overall Vision and Potential Key Technologies", it specifically describes the development trends of immersion, intelligence, and globalization of 6G services in the future, and the formation of immersive cloud XR, holographic communication, sensory interconnection, intelligent interaction, and communication. Eight business applications, including perception, inclusive intelligence, digital twin, and global coverage, bring more exciting social life scenarios.

Industry insiders said that the 6G era will enable the close integration of holographic technology and communication technology. 6G will support human beings to have a deeper understanding and perception of the physical world, help human beings build a virtual world and a virtual-real world, thereby expanding human activity space. According to the different technologies and user experience, the application scenarios of holographic communication in the future will have seven categories,
- namely: bandwidth remote management,
- low-latency precision assistance,
- ultra-intelligent information network,
- multi-dimensional interactive experience,
- high-quality portrait interaction,
- On-the-spot holographic display and
- immersive holographic images,
etc. for example:


1. Multi-dimensional interactive experience
For a long time, people have been pursuing display technology and experience effects with a stronger sense of authenticity and participation. In the future 6G era, the great improvement of communication network transmission performance will allow holographic technology and multi-modal interaction technology to be implemented. With the empowerment of these technologies, users can experience richer interaction channels and more realistic interaction effects. Therefore, multi-dimensional interactive experience scenarios can be widely used in pan-entertainment, cultural education and other fields. By building rich and multi-dimensional interactive display effects, it can provide users with holographic entertainment, holographic cultural education and other services.

In the 6G multi-dimensional interactive experience scene, home XR entertainment uses technologies such as virtual reality and channel interaction to establish a display scene with high display quality and high degree of interaction, allowing users to play family games, virtual sports and other entertainment projects with high immersion. A better viewing experience. A representative field that is mostly interactive experience is holographic games. When the game is combined with holographic technology, the fidelity of the game environment and the player's game experience will reach the peak.


2. Immersive holographic images
At present, the immersive experience method is virtual reality or augmented reality and a combination of the two, and due to problems such as display accuracy and scene data download rate, the augmented reality experience has not yet reached the commercial standard. However, in the 6G era, the shackles will be broken, and users can create a full-scene effect through naked-eye holography, providing users with a fully immersive experience.

The immersive holographic image scene needs to be in a relatively fixed system environment, since the ultra-low latency and ultra-high bandwidth communication can bring the ultimate experience to users. Therefore, the requirements for transmission are higher, and the requirements for interaction in order to enhance the immersion of the experience are also more stringent. By making use of 6G technology and naked-eye 3D display technology, immersive holographic images will greatly improve the user's sense of experience and are widely used in life and entertainment scenarios. Typical scenes include
- holographic service and sales,
- holographic news and stage art,
- holographic cinema,
- holographic sports,
- real estate model room display and
- immersive theme restaurant.


3. High-quality portrait interaction
High-quality portrait interaction will bring new communication methods and experiences, making communication more real and zero distance, spanning space and time. High-quality portrait interaction scenarios put forward higher requirements for information and communication systems, and need to achieve high-quality data collection and transmission of people, objects and environments, and multi-modal interaction in 3D. At the same time, in order to allow users to enjoy the ultimate immersive experience, it will be a big challenge to interact in 3D mode.

The wide application of holographic communication in the future will make the mutual communication and meetings between people take on a variety of rich forms. Interactivity enables people to better memorize and learn in this mode, and realize real-time communication across space in the true sense. Interaction across time and space can also be realized. By entering the body data of deceased relatives and cooperating with AI technology, the companionship across time and space can be realized.

4. New situation model display
The current holographic projection scene is relatively fixed and the equipment is cumbersome, and there are certain requirements for ambient lighting, so the scene is relatively limited. In the context of 6G technology, light field holography of small scenes can be realized, and the display of light field 3D models can enrich daily life and improve work efficiency, thereby reducing operating costs and enriching interactive experience.

The new situation model display scene can perfectly combine reality and holography. The scene does not need to be grand, but the interaction or display is more realistic. Although the three-dimensional information acquisition is more convenient, the content requirements are more stringent than the current stage. Users can use physical Sensors interact with the model through gesture interaction or somatosensory interaction. The typical application scenarios are
- holographic culture,
- holographic education,
- popular science teaching and
- digital interactive experience restaurant.

The industry chain of the holography industry is specifically divided into three parts:
- upstream,
- midstream and
- downstream, which represent the basic layer, enterprise layer and product application layer of the holography industry respectively. Up to now, a batch of technology giants have been born in the industry, such as AMD (AMD.US), Intel (INTC.US), NVIDIA (NVDA.US), WIMI (WIMI.US), etc. have set foot in one after another. It is understood that one of the world's leading holographic chip manufacturers, WIMI Hologram (WIMI.US), as a representative enterprise in the upstream of the holographic industry chain, has long been committed to the global holographic display market, with years of experience and amazing strength.
