Creating Interactive Holograms
Holowand is the platform allowing anyone to play, create and share holographic games on a marketplace. Currently, holograms are used by businesses for advertising and training - but not by consumers. Holowand is the platform that makes holograms interactive, so consumers have access to a immersive gaming experience grounded in physical space and social interaction. We provide hardware everyone can access in the form of a holographic prism. When expensive displays deflate into consumer-ready products, we're the platform everyone builds on. The applications for holograms are endless, and we're starting with gaming.
We provide the hardware and software to develop holographic games. An AI-native game engine allows users to create 3D models, interactions and controls with natural language prompting in seconds. Holowand's game engine converts this to an interactive hologram, which can be displayed on a Holoprism compatible with any display. Gamers can then use gestures or their phone as a remote to control holograms, or share their creation on Holowand marketplace.
