Hologram Industry News

A St. Petersburg museum dedicated to last year’s Group of Eight summit in the city lets visitors watch from behind a glass wall as a computer-generated hologram of Putin enters a room, takes a book on the history the Baltic Fleet from a cabinet, ruffles through its pages, looks out the window, and then walks out, Vedomosti reported. As the virtual Putin leaves the hologram of his pet Labrador Connie, which sits on the carpet through the whole show, disappears into thin air. A holographic projection of a framed painting of a birch forest then appears as if it were suspended in the middle off the room. Visitors have to spend 600 rubles for hanging out with the president.
