What the demo shows
HoloBox in a retail setting. Products, collections, virtual models or brand mascots appear as interactive 3D hologram videos, which draw shoppers in, demonstrate features and tell the brand’s story. Interactive holograms can hold attention for up to 10 minutes.
Who it is for
Retailers and brands with several stores who want in-store displays that attract crowds and lift conversions, and advertisers who want data on how their content performs.
How it works
- Capture: retailers record hologram videos of product demonstrations, mascots and promotions with a smartphone or a HoloBox Studio Kit, with no technical expertise needed.
- Manage: a cloud-based system organises, schedules and synchronises content across stores, keeping the brand consistent while allowing local changes.
- Send: content goes out over Wi-Fi to HoloBox units at every location, so updates and campaigns go live straight away.
Holograms can be combined with gamified content, touchscreens and QR codes for personal interactions, and advertisers get real-time performance data and analytics.
Where it is used

Industry example: Walmart
Walmart uses holographic displays in store so shoppers can view and turn 3D holograms of products with hand gestures, which suits launches and promotions. At the Walmart Museum, a hologram of Sam Walton acts as a brand mascot and shares the company’s history and values.
Industry example: Matin Kim
Korean fashion retailer Matin Kim installed Holobox Luma systems with audio at five stores in April, and the hologram videos gained global business media attention. A fleet management platform lets the brand change content across all stores, or in single stores, to respond to fashion trends.
