You can turn your smartphone into a 3D holographic video viewer with this simple DIY project presented by Youtuber Mrwhosetheboss. When paired with a special “hologram-ready” video, this device will create the illusion that you’re observing a floating 3D image!
All you need is an old CD case, a sharp knife, some tape, a pen, a ruler and graph paper. The videos that make use of this device play the same video from four directions, and when these are reflected in the panes of your new device, it looks like a floating 3D hologram!
Unfortunately, this illusion is not a true 3D hologram – it still uses 2D images/videos to create the effect, while a true hologram recreates a 3D object and, with current technology, requires the use of split laser beams.

I'm sorry but this is not a 3D hologram... It's only an image reflection from a semi-transparent mirror. Why people continue to say it's an hologram?

Some ideas for bigger version?? I'm thinking about replacing mobile with for example my computer monitor.. I guess that CD case is not big enough, so I need to find something from similar material.. (sorry for some mistakes, my english level isn't perfect..)

Maybe you could make one by tripling the measurements and using two cd cases? :)
