From the FAQ:
> Is LEIA a hologram?
> Leia makes it possible to project an image in the air – an image through which you can put your hand or walk but it's not a 3D projection. The image is flat and thus does not meet the criteria of the hologram definition.
So what is it?
- stuntkite 9y agoWhen you really get into spatial imaging, splitting hairs on definition is really important. To the layman, it's basically what you think of as a hologram. Holography is a photographic record of a light field. Leia might be more accurately described as a spatialized parallax display. With a light field you would be able to infinitely change your depth focus to any item in the volume because the entire light field is captured.
