What It Take To Create A Mind-Blowing Hologram Illusion

By Melissa Cole


If you are a 3D animator, you are probably familiar with the names like the 3ds Max and the Autodesk Maya. These are among several 3D modeling software that are the tools used to create the stunning visual effects that have taken alleviated 3D visual effects to the next level. The images can be stunning on the wall and TV projection, but the new hologram illusion has taken it to a completely new world.

Holograms are projected images and look so real that you will hardly imagine that they are just illusions. Imagine driving down the road on a hot day, or perhaps in some desert somewhere. The road ahead will appear as though it is not real, as though it is waving. But in your mind, you very well the road is real. After all, you are driving on it. Well, clearly, nature is tricking you through the effect of humidity, light, reflection and heat. This is an illusion.

In order to create a depth illusion, the image has to be projected through a transparent film surface and then into a flat surface behind it. While the film surface reflects some of the light, the rest goes through and is reflected by the flat surface behind the transparent film surface. Consequently, the result is an illusion of the 3D image appearing as a floating object between the spaces. This stunning visual display is what we call hologram.

The transparent surface may be a glass or a transparent film. Either way, the film used as the surface is specifically aligned to be able to give the desired illusion. A reflection of an item, object or a person gets displayed on the transparent surface with the help of a special lighting effect.

In order to create the 3D holographic images, there are equipment that has to be put together and coordinated by experts. The most common equipment you are likely to find in the arrangement include the HD projectors, the 3D modelling software, the media players, and the transparent film surface treated with specific chemicals.

Right now a team of the University of Arizona managed to take holographic pictures of a moving object and could update the picture every two seconds. That's still far away from 24 pictures per second, which makes a floating movie.

This is as a result of the image projection onto the transparent film and a flat surface behind the transparent surface. This phenomenon make the 3D images appear as though they are floating objects on space between the transparent film and the surface behind it hence the stunning visual display that is associated with the technology.

The technology is currently on the rise and the 3D animators are in high demand. The rate at which the industry is expanding has made it so attractive; leaving no doubt that it is truly the next big thing. From a 2D computer monitor or a television, the 3D hologram media is obviously difficult to grasp. The technology has found its way into the modern warfare. In order not to be left behind, take all the opportunity presented to you to learn what the technology has to offer, enjoy the ghost-like images and the whole experience.
