roily
... an extract from my post/message over on the Oil / KOAG discussion board on Interactive Investor ( ii ) site : ...
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a follow-up question might be " .... and what is it exactly that you, AHRT, do that is more advanced or more marketable over & ahead of a multitude of heavyweight competitors - many of them global giants ? "

Early days right now, and AHRT appear to be a StockMarket investor / gambler / prospector/ golddigger's dream ... eg all the big-name backers that they have "on board" ...could it be that AHRT have discovered the greatest commercial invention since the wheel ?
But is it ? And if it is ..can they secure the sole commercial / global rights to it ?
Either way, I am finding the unfolding AHRT story fascinating viewing ... but unlike roily .. I'm not yet fascinated enough to divert my paltry VAST leftover-pennies ( + some ) into AHRT
No doubt I will mess it up whichever way I go ... AKA my Vast gamble ... LoL
Still watching AHRT with interest ...
... regards to all who tread here

Everything I read, and I am seeing more and more of it, says that we are in the very early stages of a new era of tech. It wasn't that many years ago that the big thing was a flip phone and now we are carrying around computer capacity that was unheard of just 10 years ago, probably less than that.

[gussher] 09/1/2015 17:07

roily .... I hit upon this website by chance: hxxp://www.technewsworld.com/story/81550.html
while it may not feature the same strain of technology as the AHRT engine, it may be worth watching ... it forecasts a great leap in the development of Virtual Reality tools in the coming year. There could well be some over-lapping info emerging on the site... ?

[roily] 09/1/2015 15:34

I was off skiing that week so I guess I just missed it. I suspect you are right but I found the tweet and I have asked the question.

[andywg] 09/1/2015 15:12

Roily, see my post from 19th December. They were doing a 'green-screen' shoot with Warren. I guessed this was to incorporate Warren in a Humagram...

[roily] 09/1/2015 14:42

Andy- I follow them on Twitter, that one got by me.

I also need to clarify that their 3D TV is one that does not require the viewer to use glasses to watch.

With regards to Vincent it has been VERY cold here in N America particularly in Canada so in view of the cold they were very impressed with the number of hits they got with Vincent.

[andywg] 09/1/2015 13:32

Thanks, Roily. They didn't happen to mention what the Warren Buffet meeting(see ARHT Twitter account)was about....?

[gussher] 05/1/2015 18:57

roily ... any more news from your contacts? in particular, any feedback from the Christmas show / introduction of the 'Vincent' humagram at Harry Rosens store in Toronto ?
Just wondering if it created much interest or made any impact with the store ?
Also, I know its probably early days yet, but is the development of the technology any where near completion, or is there any projected time-scale for completion ?
... would expect the completion of the techno development should be quickly followed by marketing & monetisation ...
thanks

[roily] 15/12/2014 16:51

Certainly all the people on the Advisory Board are saying the right things about the company and the technology. I need to see some monetization to believe this has a future. I guess it will take a while before we will know.

You say

"I'm still intrigued whether an infant Company like ARHT will be capable of developing sole rights for this new Humagram concept/invention"

I tend to agree and what have others got that may be better technology, however, look at Whatsup sold to face book for $22 billion. you never know??

This could end up being a better investment than Vast ever was. a chance in million maybe. at least there looks to be life in the share price I think I will hold a little while and see, as before it was a busted flush and written off by many as a bad investment..

PS
..... I forgot to mention ...I have a bundle of family living in and sometimes shopping around downtown Toronto. I have alerted them that Harry Rozens high-end menswear store is or has recently been demonstrating/testing out the Humagram gismo ..
I've asked them to watch out & pause for a while if they are passing by Harry Rozens, and let me know if it looks to be attracting any attention or interest from the Christmas shopping herd.
Might be of some interest if they can provide some feedback from a "ground-zero" level
Will report back here if they have any worthwhile comments ...
LOL

Hi Roily .. more good comment there, thanks ...
I'm still intrigued whether an infant Company like ARHT will be capable of developing sole rights for this new Humagram concept/invention. And whether they will be capable of actually fending-off all the giant competitors in this field of new technology.
Make no mistake .. if this Humagram really is a new High-tech invention .. believe me, the giants in this field will use all their $billions & wealth & muscle to dissolve any pending-Patents ARHT may have on the table.
There are 2 possible outcomes, if my thought process is anywhere near the mark ..
1) ARHT will sell off their expertise/product to a benevolent Big-Boy at a moments notice - leaving any small-fry investors who strayed out of his investment for a few hours or more completely screwed & high and dry ... but much riches would fall into the lap of the already-rich high-rollers on the Advisory Board
2)ARHT might dig in and fight its corner against the Big Boys, all the way thru the Patents-pending process ...seems to me AHRT probably already has the financial clout on its Advisory Board to follow this route ...
... intriguing,interesting and I wonder whether the ultimate potential " prize" will be considered worth fighting for .. in which case investing a few thousand $'s or £'s could be the best day's work a small investor ever did ...
Me .. ? one thing's for sure - if I decide to dive in ...the stock will bomb
... if I stay outside, sitting on the fence looking in .... the stock will explode
LOL
Good luck to all .. maybe a great story & drama is taking off ...
... keep up the flow, Roily

ARHT Media gains as recent progress excites investors

12:03 pm by Deborah Bacal

The company recently unveiled its first big retail partnership with Harry Rosen, one of Canada's largest menwear retailers, to create its first-ever human hologram, otherwise known as a HumaGram.
The company recently unveiled its first big retail partnership with Harry Rosen, one of Canada's largest menwear retailers, to create its first-ever human hologram, otherwise known as a HumaGram.

Shares of ARHT Media (CVE:ART) continued their rally today, up more than 22 percent in the last week on a series of high profile announcements for the digital human hologram creator.

Just this week, the company said that Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim, one of the wealthiest people in the world, has joined its board of advisors, while also announcing a new OTCQB listing in an effort to expand its U.S. presence.

This followed a historic moment last week for the company, after it unveiled its first big retail partnership with Harry Rosen, one of Canada's largest menwear retailers, to create its first-ever human hologram, otherwise known as a HumaGram.

Named Vincent, the photo realistic and clever proximity marketing tool will be revealed this holiday season at Harry Rosen's flagship store in Yorkville in Toronto. The device will be programmed to give a precise sales presentation each time a customer shows interest, ARHT said, and will also be able to count, confirm and analyze a crowd to gauge the level of interest and deliver the correct value proposition.

The company, though at an early stage, has managed to collect an impressive list of names to join its advisory board, which prior to this week already consisted of Paul Anka, Larry King, Jason Bateman, Richard Bronson and Michael Buble after a series of back-to-back additions.

The Toronto-based company’s HumaGrams are based on its Augmented Reality Holographic Technology (ARHT) platform, which is a scalable, repeatable and transportable form of 3D without the use of special glasses.

The unique engine makes it possible for humans to interact with the HumaGram, opening up a wide range of applications – from concerts to retail stores and tradeshows. The platform also ties up seamlessly with the idea of proximity marketing and e-commerce.

Essentially, celebrity holograms can be created and placed in window displays and other high traffic destinations, drawing customers into a region of proximity and offering them a value proposition, like in the case of Harry Rosen customers.

The HumaGrams deliver a message on a particular product tilted towards the viewer’s level of interest, then offer up the ability to buy the product right there on the spot through a QR code, an SMS text or side load of a coupon to the retailer’s mobile app on a smartphone.

Shares of ARHT were up almost 9 percent at 49 Canadian cents as at 11:35am ET, rising to as high as 53 cents earlier in the session. Since December 8, the stock has risen 22.5 percent, and has more than tripled in the last three months.

I'm trying. I'm getting destroyed in the oil market, never envisioned it going this far south so I may as well try to understand the tech world.

Good work Roily ...appreciated

Correction: OTCQB is NOT the highest level OTC market but it is a higher level than what it was on.
