Was CNN's hologram really a hologram? Read here

Our holographic displays were featured on CNN (Holographic TV to become reality) Oct, 2008. (note: this news story has nothing to do with the "hologram interview" CNN showed during 2008 US presidential elections. For an explanation of the difference between real holograms and CNN's stuff, see above)
