Objective:
– To demonstrate “three-dimensional real images” and optical illusions
Apparatus:
- Mirage Model 2000
- Micro Bank
Method:
Mirage® produces a small, full-color hologram of natural, lifelike appearance, allowing 360-degree viewing.
To achieve these effects, the Mirage® utilizes a patented technology of two concealed, opposing parabolic mirrors.
In overall appearance, Mirage® resembles a small wok with a 2-inch circular opening in the top. The physical object to be converted to a hologram is placed in the concave center of the bottom mirror. A hologram instantly projects up through this aperature, appearing to the viewer as a truly solid object.
