Line 88:
* Oddly, since the later (continuity-wise) ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined|Battlestar Galactica]]'' lacks them, ''[[Caprica]]'' has these in spades. The later absence is likely due to the [[Science Is Bad|technology backlash]] that resulted from the [[Robot War|First Cylon War]].
* The Visitors in the 2009 remake of ''V'' use interfaces that can be made to appear and disappear with a wave of a hand.
== Tabletop Games ==
* ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' has "hololithic displays". While common dataslates have plain 2D (and usually monochromatic) displays, holo-displays are used on spaceship bridges, tactical command centers etc. And ''expensive'' home theatre systems. Crafting hololithic images is also used as a form of art, with both religious and secular applications. In [[Dark Heresy|RPG]] it's one of forms covered by Trade (Artist) skill - though once crafted, static pictures usually are replayed via "holo-lantern" (3D equivalent of a slide projector) or cheap, single-image, badge sized holo-wafers.

* In ''[[The Kenny Chronicles]]'' [[Funny Animal|Tarneki]] teenagers wear collars with holographic displays (the adults tend to use older handheld computers). Their use of these instead of [[Unusual User Interface|neural links]] is one reason why [http://www.kennychronicles.com/2009/04/23/their-collars/ humans consider Tarnation equivalent to a third-world country].
* From ''[[Homestuck]]'', Jade's computer. It has a massive holographic screen, and a separate [[Hard Light]] keyboard, while the computer itself is the size of a lunchbox.
* In ''[[Girl Genius]]'' these are present, though still considered exotic - such as [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20101112 the Castle map]. Note that it happened after Agatha crafted a 3D movie recorder and large-scale projector and Tarvek "tweaked" recording - what they consider cool here is clearly real-time interface.
