Education
From anatomy in 3D to guest lectures from a distance: holograms make course material tangible and unforgettable. Institutions such as TU Delft, Erasmus University and NIMETO went before you.
- Complex material explained visually and interactively
- Guest lecturers live as a hologram in the classroom
- Connects programmes and campuses with each other
Why a hologram works in education
Course material sticks poorly from a flat screen, and precisely the most valuable guest lecturers and experts are the hardest to get onto campus.
A hologram makes abstract material literally spatial: an anatomical model, a machine or a molecule stands life-size and three-dimensional in front of the class, without glasses or headsets. And over the live link an expert lectures from the other side of the world as if standing in front of the room, questions from the benches included.
We see the effect at the schools that work with it: students linger at the installation, programmes start collaborating around the content, and the material becomes unforgettable instead of clicked through.
How clients use it
Vocational school NIMETO in Utrecht uses the Holobox throughout the school: versatile across programmes, and a spark for collaborations between courses and schools, according to their community manager.
A remote guest lecture: minister Kuipers showed what that looks like when he opened a festival stage live as a hologram; the same principle brings an expert into the lecture hall.

Open days and orientation: the school presents itself with an eye-catcher that prospective students remember.
Suitable products
Practical: space, power and installation
A Holobox needs nothing more than a standard wall socket and a stable internet connection, and is in place within an hour. We take care of delivery, installation and loading the content; you need no technical or AV knowledge of your own. For schools we think along about timetabled use: teachers can easily operate the unit themselves.
Frequently asked questions about holograms in education
Do students need glasses or a headset?
No. The hologram is visible to the naked eye, for the whole group at once; that is exactly the difference with VR and AR solutions.
Can teachers operate the unit themselves?
Yes. Playing content is a matter of choosing on the touchscreen or staging a file; no technical knowledge is needed.
Can we have our own teaching material produced?
Yes. We produce content from your curriculum, from 3D models to recorded instructions, and the school keeps control of the material.
Is such an installation not too fragile for a school?
The unit is a closed whole with toughened glass, built for public spaces; schools like NIMETO use it daily throughout the building.
