The '''Type-27 Responsive Holographic Form Emulator''' | The '''Type-27 Responsive Holographic Form Emulator''', often shortened as "'''Hologram'''" or "'''T-27 Decoy package'''", is a piece of Covenant decoy technology. It was reverse-engineered by the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]], and is utilized by [[SPARTAN Program|SPARTANs]].<ref name="reach">'''Halo: Reach'''</ref><ref name="h4site">[http://halo.xbox.com/halo4#!halo-evolved/gameplay/31afe32b-0e07-45c0-9424-3adc6e1eadca '''Halo 4 Official Site''': ''Gameplay'']</ref> | ||

The only known Covenant species that uses the emulator are the [[Skirmishers]], namely only the [[Skirmisher Champion]]s and [[Skirmisher Commando|Commandos]]. Sometime before or during [[2552]], the emulator was reverse engineered from Covenant technology and was later [[Armor abilities|integrated]] into the [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor]]. The emulator creates an holographic copy of the user and can be commanded to move to locations chosen by the user. It is often used to deceive enemies.<ref name="reach"/><ref name="h4site"/> | |||

To allies, the holographic copy would appear as a white dot on their [[motion tracker]]. The ability functions by pointing the targeting reticule at a destination and deploying it like other armor abilities. When activated, the hologram will run in a straight line to the destination and stop once it reaches its designated location. The hologram will flicker away if it is either damaged enough or if it reaches its lifespan limit (10 seconds).

*The hologram is useful in [[Campaign]], since most enemies will fall for it. It is an effective way to test the number of enemies ahead of the player's position. | |||
*In [[multiplayer]], one can evade a [[Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword|Energy Sword]] lunge by deploying a hologram at the last second. In [[Infection]], this gives one a chance to attack the infected. | |||

In ''[[Halo 4]]'', projecting a hologram onto a corpse will cause the hologram to crouch up and down, [[Corpse Humping|humping]] it.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM82Lv0FU50&feature=g-user-u '''Achievement Hunter:''' ''Halo 4: HoloHump - Easter Egg''</ref> The effect is not only humorous, it also increases the plausibility of the decoy. | |||
