Forth Dimension Holographics is very proud to offer the very latest GEOLA group digital
holographic technology of true color, moving, spacial hologram image printing for the
USA market. i-Lumogram digital holograms imprint full-color three-dimensional objects & scenes
floating & moving in space! Completely different than analog hologram technology,
lenticular pictures, or any other printing method in existence; we can now record & merge
the dimensions of time & space! This break-through printing media creates a true full-color
digital hologram (i-Lumogram) which must be experienced first-hand incorporating all of
a person's eyes, mind, and body. Now it possible to take 3D computer generated imagery
(CGI) and real-time digital image capture hardware and create large format, reflection
holograms in full-color with full smooth animation and meters of scene depth and projection!
Our i-Lumogram holograms truly must be seen to be believed!

*Please note it is impossible to show the true three dimensional representation of our custom holographic images with any current photographic or digital techniques. Aspects such as extreme resolution, true horizontal & vertical parallax, extended projection and scene depth into viewing environment, etc., are impossible to show on a computer monitor or other 2D surface. These 2D images of actual holograms are for representational purposes only. |

The i-Lumogram holographic imaging process starts with either your own in-house 3D designing
of CG 3D files or we may assist you with 3D files or virtual scene's image capture. These
files may be sent back and forth via the internet and "tweaked" until the final imaging is
satisfactory for both the client and our holographic printing process. Alternatively, real-life
scenes can now be filmed with our propietary HoloCam camera system and then imprinted
with life, movement, and true color.
Digital Image Creation
The final visual information we need to print the digital hologram is a series of carefully
controled images in .JPG or bitmaps formats. According to the size and type of hologram,
we need to have from between 600-2000 individual pictures.
Design is infinite. Nevertheless it is important to prepare the final concept of the hologram as
a story board to maximize the visual impact. You can play-out your concept as conventional
film making with smooth and fluent movement, or use morphing effects for transformation of
an object or scene, or perhaps you might want to extract different image sequences to play
with the element of time... the possibilities are endless! Our expert 3D designers are here to
help and make sure that your ideas and message are well-tuned to this new digital
holographic media.
Companies that work with 3D data using computer aided design (CAD), such as the automotive
or architectural industries, already experience four-dimensional creation. What we provide is
a medium to record and print this information. If you are technical engineers of 3D designers,
please download our technical support brochure and related creative design aid software
package here.
Real-Life Scene Recording
We have developed several 4D recording systems (HoloCams) for the real-life image capture
suitable for our digital holographic printer. However, sometimes we can use the data captured from
other recording systems, even tracking cameras mounted in satellites. We also have experience
working from manually recorded digital footage. Sometimes it is possible to use these recordings,
although the easier and better quality method would be to use one of our HoloCam camera
tracking systems. Our creative team can assist you in choosing which methods of image capture
are best for you proposed scene and intended application. HoloCam systems are portable, so
recording can be done anywhere.
4D Printing
Holographic printing is started after final approval of the i-Lumogram print preview made from the
rendered data. Our process uses digital information so we can enlarge or reduce the sizes of
the final 4D holograms as you wish. Our creative team will make suggestions to fully exploit
the potential of the media. Thinking in four-dimensions implies the communicating of your
3D vision in a moving context. The finishing of the hologram can be achieved in several
ways including standard lamination on a black plexiglas or other materials including trans-
parent and flexible substrates.
Lighting & Display
Using the i-Lumogram holographic printing process means that one must work interactively with
time and space. We offer several standard lighting and display units for the quick, proper
display of our digital holograms. However, for specific use locations, there are different
parameters that can be changed with the design, printing, and lighting... all that can alter
the playback and perception of the hologram. According to your specific use, we can
manufacture the i-Lumogram hologram and playback lighting unit to meet your needs.
Please note that larger size hologram formats will require higher intensity point light sources for the
proper viewing of the hologram image. FDH can supply you with our newly developed 4D display
lighting units for the absolute optimum viewing of your i-Lumogram holographic print.

suited for your project and applications. Please call for more information about this ground
breaking new 3D imaging process and how it can jumpstart your next campaign!
