kcjenkins Posted January 8, 2016 Report Posted January 8, 2016 Its not a hologram. Its a mock up/ representation of what you would see IF you were wearing their virtual reality headset. The headset shows you the room you are actually in in real life and then puts the cgi whale into that environment. The whale can even interact with the environment of the room. As shown by the water reflections on the floor. Its 'augmented reality' i.e. you see the room you are in and the cgi on top of it. BUT without the headset on you would see nothing. Still pretty impressive though. 1 Quote
