The Spherical Hologram - An Industry First
The Go2 Productions Innovation Lab has done it again, creating the world’s first spherical hologram with 18.5 million virtual pixels. This incredible 10.5ft diameter structure was conceived and designed by the creative team at Go2 and fabricated by our trusted technical partners – RabCup Studios.
Besides the 360° holographic branded content that appears to float around the structure, we included a unique holographic selfie booth. Audio reactive RGB LED strip lighting was installed on every connecting side to give an added depth of content and overall effect.
The whole system made extensive use of the SDK and touch designer. All the control hardware was neatly packed inside the structure, accessible from the structure’s base. Guests were invited to create 4 seconds of video adjacent to the dome, which later appeared in full HD quality on one of the holographic zones.
Techniques used: Hypervsn holographic, Interactive Installation
Client: MSL All-Star Game Weekend
Overview
The holographic units are still in the beta stages of production and require massive amounts of R&D from Go2, our technical partners, RabCup, and the manufacturer, HYPERVSN, to pull this off. None of what we produced here is included in the manual. Extensive reprogramming and coding were needed from all parties to pull this off.
The Result
We just designed and produced the world’s first spherical holographic selfie booth! Our clients, Wasserman and Target, were both elated with the results and guests were blown away by the new technology and mesmerized by the overall effect. Everyone was taking part, having a blast and filming their ‘on-screen’ moments. The most common comments from the crowd were ‘WOW’ and ‘How the heck ?!’.
