The idea is not new actually, the first being available at Luton Airport in London and they use the same idea. A rear camera projects the images on a human based piece of plexiglass which gives the feeling that these images simply appear from thin air at a switch if a button. Passengers that walk by are usually stunned to see these holograms and they stop to see them or even try to touch them. The attention they get also makes them pretty useful because their main purpose at the Orly Airport is to help people find their flight and get on it in time.

You may notice that these holograms are not as cool as the one seen in Star Wars movies or other similar ones. The images don’t rise up from the ground and project themselves on air but the concept still remains interesting and it is a step forward. Maybe in the future you will be able to interact with them as you would interact with a regular person and get more information when you need it. Until then, these will do just fine in guiding the people at Orly Airport and in making small children curious. It does give you the desire to touch it and see if it distorts or if you can feel something but all you will be able to feel is the plexiglass on which the images are shown.
