Realfiction

Realfiction is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Realfiction rather than just read about it. In short: Realfiction is a Danish company producing the technological artifact, Dreamoc, for experiencing HD 3D holographic motion graphics. History Realfiction was established in October 2008, and is now represented by a worldwide reseller network with partners in more than 25 countries and territories.

Key takeaways

Realfiction belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Realfiction to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Realfiction from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Realfiction is a Danish company producing the technological artifact, Dreamoc, for experiencing HD 3D holographic motion graphics.

History Realfiction was established in October 2008, and is now represented by a worldwide reseller network with partners in more than 25 countries and territories. The company has 8 employees and the founders are Clas Dyrholm, Founder & CEO and Peter Simonsen, Founder & R&D. Realfiction's most popular product (2009) is the Dreamoc, which both is a platform for content for the artifact itself and is also a technological artifact shaped like a glass pyramid, where the Dreamoc content is presented inside as a hologram. There are various artifacts from Realfiction - from 180 degree projections to full HD 360 degree screens. The Dreamoc's chief purpose is to advertise products for companies - "especially for high profile brands in a competitive retail environment".

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Realfiction

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Realfiction claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Realfiction before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Realfiction ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Realfiction

In research: Realfiction appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Realfiction in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Realfiction is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Danish companies established in 2008, Holography industry, Information technology companies of Denmark, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Realfiction outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
