It wasn't really a hologram

So it turns out. what you saw on CNN on Election night was not really a hologram. what that shit is dumb. They said it was one and it looked like one.
Well it's not or according to Professor Hans Jurgen Kreuzer of Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
What we really saw was a "tomogram," a type of image commonly used in special-effects scenes in movies. If the image had been an actual hologram, The anchor would be able to see the hologram in real life and not just in a monitior off stage. So basically it's only a hologram in camera. In real life they were talking to nothing and probably hearing the voice only.
Apprently holograms are still ten years away.

lame

but come on saying we have the first tomogram on tv doesn't have the same ring to it.
