2025: Start of Sales
In early January 2025, it became known that Holoconnects launched the Holobox system, which allows you to create life-size 3D holograms of people and broadcast them in real time over a distance.
The device is a rectangular cabin with an 86-inch touch screen and a system of cameras for capturing an image of a person on a white background, followed by conversion into a hologram.
 | Our Holobox technology provides an opportunity to restore real connections between people and allows them to learn, collaborate and work together regardless of distance and location, "emphasized Holoconnects CEO and Co-Founder Andre Smith. |  |
The system is already being applied at the Aiden by Best Western Hotel in Denmark, where an AI holographic avatar helps guests with check-in, booking and other services. Crescent Regional Hospital in Texas uses Holobox to conduct holographic consultations with physicians.
According to analysts at Research & Markets, the holographic display market will reach $13 billion by 2032. The technology finds application in various fields from communications to medicine.
Holoconnects also introduced a compact version of the device - the Holobox Mini with a 20-inch screen for desktop use. The company develops specialized solutions for retail, education and healthcare.
In Las Vegas, the company is demonstrating new capabilities of the system in cooperation with the Dutch government. Two Holobox devices form an interactive holographic grid for presentation by 50 tech companies.
The system allows you to broadcast both pre-recorded content and holographic video conferencing in real time. The device can be used to create virtual assistants, conduct remote consultations and organize presentations.[1]
2024: System Implementation at Texas Clinic
In May 2024, the American Crescent Regional Hospital in Lancaster (Texas) introduced the Holobox telemedicine system developed by the Dutch company Holoconnects. Thanks to this solution, hologram doctors can conduct dialogue with patients.
Holobox is a device in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped approximately 210 cm high and weighing about 180 kg. Inside this "box," a high-quality 3D image of a healthcare professional who is in a completely different place is formed in real time. As a result, the patient has a feeling that the doctor is next to him. In fact, the doctor, located many kilometers from the place of reception of the visitor, looks at video cameras and displays.
The system allows the patient and doctor to perform telemedicine appointments, which is more like a face-to-face conversation. As of mid-2024, the service is used mainly for pre- and postoperative visits. In the future, Crescent Regional Hospital management intends to expand the range of services based on Holobox: in particular, it is planned to organize traditional techniques. It is assumed that the use of holograms will improve the quality of remote care for patients.
The Holobox platform costs approximately $42,000, and annual support costs $1,900. According to Raji Kumar, managing partner and CEO of Crescent Regional Hospital, the introduction of the novelty expands the possibilities of telemedicine. Thanks to the large screen and complex camera system, the doctor can see the whole body of the patient, which is useful when assessing characteristics such as gait or range of movement. The complex can be especially useful, for example, in physiotherapy.[2]
