  >However, a single holographic video call on a one-square-metre portal would require a data rate of approximately 200 terabits per second I guess they just wanted an actual number to say, but that's complete nonsense. It says nothing about compression, frame rate, resolution, or anything you'd actually need to know to make that calculation. Besides that, as far as I know, there is no way to actually record holograms in real time, much less portably.

    My thoughts exactly. It would probably be enough to just send a 3D model with only a few thousand polygon over the network and render that at the target location instead of a full atom-by-atom representation of me ;-) Holygraphic displays are just a method to render 3D content and that is very easy to transfer (see games today).
