3D HOLONET vs PEPPER'S GHOST
New 3D Holonet
Our new patented 3D Holonet is fast and convenient, giving excellent results more cost-effectively than old-school foil solutions. 3D Holonet hangs vertically like a normal drape, with content projected directly onto it. Real silver in the screen surface means it's very transparent, yet it still creates high quality, bright images. 3D Holonets can be moved and reused many times, and with correct storage, can last for years. With a maximum unseamed width of up to 7m / 23 feet and a viewing angle of approximately 140º, 3D Holonet has an impressive specification for an unparalleled viewing experience.
Symphony To A Lost Generation
Pepper's Ghost
The original stage technique that brought holograms into the 20th century, creating iconic performances such as Tupac and The Black Eyed Peas. The content is displayed on a concealed video wall or projection screen and reflected in a mylar foil suspended at 45º. The holograms appear behind the foil, usually in the middle or rear of the stage. We design and deliver beautiful Pepper's Ghost holograms, however given the disadvantages - bulky hardware, fragile single-use foil, and the time and space required to install - mean most of our clients choose the speed and flexibility of 3D Holonet.

ABOUT 3D HOLONET
3D Holonet is the next generation in video hologram technology, with a super bright image obtained by incorporating real silver into the projection surface.
Suitablility
Our new 3D Holonet is a quick and easy alternative where the audience is a few metres away from the screen, and the surrounding lighting levels can be controlled for optimal viewing conditions. We are always happy to advise on suitability and welcome clients to our London-based demo room - either in person or virtually - to experience the magic for themselves.
Simplicity
To create a convincing illusion of 3D is easy. Simply project suitable content onto this highly transparent surface, and carefully light behind it The 3D Holonet becomes invisible, and the projected images seem real. Our experienced experts can help with lighting designs, and we can either create your content, or provide support for your team with advice, testing and feedback.

New 3D Holonet Testing
We wanted to test our fabulous 3D Holonet outdoors to see how it performed. But…
Astonishing Results
…even we were astounded by the brightness and clarity! See for yourself in the video below.
INSTALLING 3D HOLONET
Installing 3D Holonet couldn’t be simpler.
Rigging
Just hang the 3D Holonet from a truss or a bar. To make this even easier we can fit eyelets and bungees, theatre ties or any other suitable hanging method for a flat and even result.
Tensioning
Lightly tension the 3D Holonet to remove any wrinkles. We can add a pipe pocket or chain weights if desired.
USING 3D HOLONET
Projecting
The real silver in 3D Holonet makes video projections extremely bright. When projecting on any gauze or net, some of the light passes through the holes creating a secondary image behind the screen. We can give advice on where to place your projectors so the secondary can't be seen.
Reusing and Recycling
Unlike Pepper’s Ghost foil, 3D Holonet can be moved and reused many times before the silver eventually tarnishes. It can be preserved by storage in an airtight bag, and it's easily carried. When the screen reaches the end of its useful life, we can recycle it if it is returned to us.
