Criteria A - Inquiry and Analysing Week 2

Tech Fair Idea

3D Hologram Pyramid

Partner for my project is Sarah Degheidy. We were thinking a lot about what to do as the project.

Our ideas for Tech Fair

1. Our first idea was to create a game. We needed the special coding to create an app, which neither of us knew, so we decided not to do the app. I made a research on the coding and it is called JavaScript.  A scripting language developed by Netscape to enable Webauthors to design interactive sites.
2. Our next idea was to do a big, informative poster about digital cameras. We made a lot of research but then we decided that it's going to too boring to create a simple poster. 

So, I decided to search on YouTube for DIY (do it yourself) technology projects. I found an amazing idea.  I was always interested in hologram and saw a lot of hologram images in movies, so I thought it's going to be a great opportunity to learn how hologram works. We are going to make our own hologram pyramid. 
How it works: each side projects the image falling on it, to the center of the pyramid. These projections work in unison to form a whole figure which creates a 3D illusion. Technology used for this project is our devices where we are going to play the hologram video from YouTube.
