If a two dimensional picture is worth a thousand words, then the hologram is equivalent to a small novel. Since its discovery in 1947, holography has come from the unknown and into most people’s possession. The average person finds the hologram a curiously fascinating decoration on his credit card. Soon we may find holograms projecting our car’s instrument panels onto the windshields, according to Ford Motor Company.
