Kaleidoscopes? Or do you mean those circle things with frames of an animation that you spin and it appears to animate? If neither, I haven't a clue what the hell you're talking about.

Ah. They're called Holograms. The confusion is due to the fact that they are made using Holography and are thus Holographic, in a sense.

A hologram is a 3d projected image, like in Star Wars.

Guys, I think he means the pictures, that when you tilt them, change the picture. He's not talking about a hologram. A hologram is still 3D even if you don't tilt it. And that's what he's all up to.

"Wackelbilder" in German, so I translated it on some site, only found a forum-discussion. It's called a "Lenticular Picture." Here's a similar link to Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenticular_image

Hope it helps.

Heh, thanks. :)

No, that's a volumetric projection, because it is actually 3D and takes up actual volume. Holograms themselves are flat, but appear 3D because of the technique used to make them.

I see. But Lenticular images are still 3D, right? Crap, you outsmarted all of us.
