Holography: Difference between revisions

Though now extinct, the Forerunners were true masters of holography. Their projections were accurate far beyond UNSC or even Covenant capabilities, able to appear as solid and actual objects. Holograms were used on Alpha Halo for a visible representation of the ringworld, and on the Ark for each of the Halo's and for a visual demonstration by 343 Guilty Spark on the Halo Array's capabilities. It is also notable to mention that many of the Forerunner terminals and nodes that can be activated, particularly in Halo 3, as holograms, yet apparently feel solid and can be pressed by the Master Chief. This could just be him passing his hand over the hologram, but in-game he appears to actually touch them. This is likely, as the [[Forerunner]] have proven their capability to produce 'Hard Light' holograms; the barriers in [[Halo Wars]], the multiple light bridges and barriers ([[Energy Bridge]], [[Barrier Tower]]) that have appeared throughout the series (Debuting in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], in [[Halo (Halo: Combat Evolved Level)|a place that was most certainly not a natural formation... X3]]), and, arguably, energy shields (Which the Covenant based their technology upon, then subsequently reverse-engineered by humans). Again, it would be wise to note - if the Covenant can produce 'hard light' (See [[Holo-Drone]], [[Deployable Cover]]/[[Anti-Vehicle Barrier]]/[[Kig-Yar Point Defense Gauntlet]]) then the Forerunner most certainly can (Never mind that Cortana [[Energy Bridge|said it herself]]).
