stephen_rockefeller Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 Interesting........I've seen the hero factory one which was super cool. Get in good with the manager of the store you saw it in, you never know what might happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I think that they have a light that projects the "hologram" onto the glass in front. I've also heard that it isn't that hard to program your own, but I'm not that much of a techy guy, so I don't know how easy it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idunno101 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Today I saw a lego display where they simulated a hologram effect and I got some interest on it. Does anybody knows how to do it? I have been looking for information of it It's pretty simple to set it up but the whole animation thing I guess, is a bit tricky. To build the display area, first, set up the LEGO display how you want it. Then put in a piece of glass from the bottom-front to the top-back of the display like in the picture displayed below. Then put an LCD projector on the top of the box facing down. When the LCD is on the images will be reflected off of the glass at a 45 degree angle and the images will be displayed on the front of the display. Hope this helps in your quest to make your own display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
