What is HOLOFIL-cardboard?
.jpg)
HOLOFIL-cardboard as a critical component of the 3D ecosystem learning environment inspiration at HOLOFIL. It is a tabletop portable mobile based consumer hologram mobile display platform that simulates mesmerizing 3D visual experiences that simulates holograms. Your smart phone with 3D content gets projected in HOLOFIL-cardboard to enjoy simulated holographic visual experiences.
HOLOFIL-cardboard uses a specially researched and designed high end casing along with specially created optical glass with multiple special optical coatings and in display backlight, that creates a perfect optical environment. You interact with it using Bluetooth controller that is part of the package and many games / apps that comes with it for both Android / iPhone. Check the game-store for the links to install.
Why HOLOFIL-cardboard?
Use HOLOFIL-cardboard as a beginners learning end display platform where your kid's designs of 3D models, animations, games can be visualized. If a kid is designing random models without any framework in place he will not end up learning how real life usages look like. Aiming to visualize your 3D assets in HOLOFIL-cardboard and designing with that goal brings real life constraints on design, to help kids prepare better. It helps them give sense of proportions from a display volume context.
​
As they have a final aim for their designs such as size, scale, colors, movements, lighting, so they look best in HOLOFIL-cardboard, it helps kids think methodically to plan and execute better and get ready for more complex projects.
kids learn how to build projects with specifications to fit the constraints of any device. It's always great to have an end goal during academic learning than just randomly design things because in real life there is always constraint that needs to be kept in mind while designing. This gives a disciplined approach in design with an end goal so the kids can then transform to more complex devices including VR / AR devices etc with more complex content requirements.
Two research grants worth €20k each from Dutch govt (2022, 2023)
HOLOFIL is a 3D projection display allowing physical + virtual combination, with an insane optical quality and software content support, for the price on offer. Give it a try.
Introduce kids to 3D design tools ecosystem
If you like LEGOs, there are equivalent of 3D design learning tools for kids in the 3D world. Take an example of
TinkerCAD from AUTODESK. There are more such softwares that expose kids to basics of 3D design and then
they can create their own 3D data to be used with HOLOFIL-cardboard to visualize it in a more fun way. Check out our extensive coverage of the related material by visiting our dedicated section for 3D for kids.
​
Use it as a testbed for Unity 3D gaming using our existing games as a benchmark.
Revisit childhood fun with 3D casual arcade gaming
We have launched a 3D casual games store to be used with HOLOFIL-cardboard and 4 games and 2 apps are already released while a total of 15 games / apps are in pipeline with one release every few months. The aim is to recreate the 3D casual versions of many classic childhood arcade games that we played in the 90s.
