Hologram Technology

Hologram is an amazing technology but it seems to be out or reach in day to day life, too futuristic to be seen outside sci-fi movies and video games. It has been applied now to every day happenings. In this technology, a laser is used to imprint an image on to a recording surface. Here one can copy or reconstruct almost anything. Later a camera is used to project this image in 3D form. Hologram USA is a company that creates holograms.

Even the dead celebrities can be resurrected by using hologram technology. Michael Jackson was made to return to the stage ( he died in 2009 ) at the Billboard Music Awards, 2014. His hologram performed Slave to the Rhythm from his posthumous album Xscape, alongside both real and virtual dancers. In 2007, Elvis Prisley was resurrected to perform his 1968 hit If I can Dream  alongside Celine Dione.

Whitney Houston who expired in 2012 will be brought from the dead to do a tour of the world and sing again I will always love you. Billy Holiday, the famous jazz singer who died in 1959 will perform at Apollo, New York.

Some do question the application of this technology to resurrect dead celebrities. In 2014, this technology was used in India by a political party to make its leader to talk to audiences across different cities at the same time.
