Making Holograms In The Kitchen

Posted by timothy on from the you-can-make-anything-in-the-kitchen dept.

Paul writes "Over at www.litiholo.com is a newly launched hologram kit that lets you make your own holograms at home. No, it's not Princess Leia asking you for help, but it's still pretty cool making a hologram on your kitchen table. Particularly interesting is the instant hologram film that makes holograms with no developing (kind of a Polaroid film for holograms). The hologram kit costs $99, including the laser, film, and everything else."

    Gone it seems are the days of making holograms in a basment with a water bed frame filled with sand and a Helium Neon laser scrounged from an old Safeway UPC code reader.

    Ah well.

    Judging from the submitter's email address this is a shameless plug for a product. What, no real news today?

    Today? You must be new here.
