Holographic packaging is being introduced by tech start-up Immertia to provide additional information from a friendly human face. As the company describes, "there's a person, a hologram, inside the packaging, waiting to provide information and advice. In English, or in Spanish."
Rather than having to wait for someone in a store to answer a product question, consumers can now rely on interactions with the tiny human hologram. Powered by realistic augmented reality, the tool is activated by a smartphone and the hologram can be viewed through a camera. Consumers have the benefit of learning about the product itself, from the product itself, along with getting helpful advice and usage instructions straight from the package in a fun and interactive way.
Immertia sees applications for this technology in everything from food and beverage to health, education and manufacturing.
