Pretty cool technology. I predict we will see a whole lot more of this in the near future.
They were talking about the technology yesterday but were keeping it all hush-hush for the big reveal during the night.

Rollen that was different, the hologram CNN used was 3D, if you watch the video you will see that we see the hologram from different directions. If you check gizmodo you can see an article on how it was made. They used 44 HD cameras and 20 computers for it.

I think that the quality of the Saudi is better, ( look at the red circle under Jessica, and the red stroke surrounding her)
Anything that ever came on StarTrek is becoming reality.
it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO cool, and they did it with Will.i.am too!
Just goes to show how the US war machine can manipulate photgraphy when they want to………very Manchurian Candidate stuff.
All a hoax. The “holograms” didn’t actually appear in the studio as real holograms would.
