The BBC has revealed it has been conducting experiments that may finally make that a reality.

It has built an experimental prototype that produces 'floating' holographic images above a flat screen.



Cyrus Saihan, head of digital partnerships at the BBC, said the project was initially aimed at finding out whether holographic effects could be used to watch TV.





He said: 'We wanted to see if holographic effects could be used to bring our TV footage to life and whether in the future audiences might be attracted to the concept of a holographic TV.'

The team built their holographic display with a flat screen television laid flat onto which they placed a pyramid made from transparent acrylic plastic.

Working with specialists MDH Hologram,

they created footage that would repeat the same image four times on the screen so it would then be reflected onto the pyramid.

This created the illusion of a holographic image hovering above the flat surface.

Cool, and you can DIY it yourself with your smartphone/tablet using old CD case transparent plastic:

Just reflection trickery.
For it to be a reality it has to be geometrically 3d.
