Yup. Total holograph.

Not holographic as in a projection. Its simply a piece of paper. Its hard to explain but the paper is concave and dented a certain way. If you watch the video a couple times the illusion is less effective and you can pick up the structure of the paper.

Posted by A_M_8 on Nov-04-2004 18:32:

I built one for myself... this is cool stuff.... and it does work with bothe eyes.... I put mineon yop of my desk and I can walk infront of it about 3 meters away and it works perfectly!

I tried to do one but I think I've done something wrong, are u supposed to bend the head a little so that it is facing forwards (as in the video) ?

I think ur having the same problem i had at first..... make sure you fold the head in the correct direction go back and re-check that you are folding them correctly (valley or mountain fold)eventhough at first it seem that the other way makes sense... The same thing happened to me but then i re-folded it and it works

Posted by P4z! on Nov-04-2004 19:29:

I think it works now, but it doesn't have the same amount of effect as the one in the video, maybe I should wait and try it in daylight instead.
