Holobox

Holobox is a transparent display unit that shows a person, product, or logo as a 3D, hologram-like figure. Clients use it at events, in exhibitions, and in retail spaces where a regular flat screen would just blend in. The footage can be pre-recorded, streamed live, or driven by an AI avatar.

Inside the transparent enclosure is a display system calibrated for content prepared specifically for it. The footage is usually filmed against a black background and edited so the subject reads as a 3D figure. To a viewer, it feels closer to a person standing there than a video on a screen, which is why it works in busy public spaces. With the right integration, it can also respond to the viewer.

Some of the ways clients use it:

• A virtual host that welcomes visitors at the entrance
• A product reveal inside a booth
• A speaker giving a recorded or live talk as if they were on stage
• Walking visitors through a service that's hard to explain on a flyer
• An AI avatar that actually responds to visitors, when the integration is in place

Yes, with the right setup. You'll need:

• A stable internet connection
• A capture or broadcast source, like a camera, studio, or streaming platform
• A proper on-site audio setup

If live streaming isn't needed, the same unit can loop a pre-recorded clip all day.

Once the AI integration is in place, the avatar can talk to visitors, guide them, and answer questions about whatever scenario you've built: product Q&A, service walkthroughs, lead qualification. The interaction feels different from looping the same video.

What you'll need at the venue:

• A stable power outlet
• Enough space for the unit, plus a viewing area in front
• Lighting that isn't too bright in front of the screen, so the contrast holds up
• Internet, which is optional for pre-recorded content but required for live streaming, remote updates, or AI interaction
• Audio, either through the built-in sound or external speakers in larger venues

The full-size unit is roughly 50 cm wide and 222 cm tall, and it's heavy, so it's worth deciding where it goes early in your booth or lobby plan. You'll also want to think about viewing angles and how visitors will walk past it.

Content production usually goes like this:

• Decide on the message and what you want viewers to do after watching
• Write a short script and plan the wardrobe and visual style
• Film it on a controlled set with proper lighting and framing
• Edit, key out the background, and optimize the file for Holobox playback
• Test on the actual device, then schedule it for the event

Swapping out the recorded content for a new campaign or seasonal message is straightforward, especially if the unit is connected to the internet or to a content management workflow. Offline playback works too, depending on how it's configured. For events, we usually suggest preparing one short loop and one longer explainer.

There are smaller versions for tight spaces or when you need to move the unit between locations. Which one fits depends on venue size, expected visitor volume, viewing distance, and whether you need clear floor space in front for an interactive setup.

Pricing comes down to a few things:

• How long you need it, in event days, and the overall scope
• Whether we're producing the content from scratch, including filming, 3D work, editing, and any AI avatar
• Transport, installation, and on-site technical support
• Whether live streaming or a larger audio setup is needed
• How many units, since one device costs less than several display points across a venue

There's a control panel that handles play and pause, scene switching, scheduling, and content updates. For events, you can either bring us in for on-site managed operation, or we can train your team to run it. The managed option is usually safer when AI interaction or live streaming is involved.

All three are available: buy, rent, or lease. The right option usually depends on how many events you run per year, how much technical support you want included, and whether the content is pre-recorded, live, or AI-driven.
