Experts from the Czech company IQ Structures have invented a way of improving holograms and they were awarded a certificate of merit for holography innovations at a world conference in Barcelona in November, they have told CTK in a press release.

Their innovation of holograms, which are commonly used to protect various stamps against counterfeiting, could also be used in control panels of cars.
Holographic features such as those used on banknotes or stickers to ensure their genuineness, are based on a complex structured surface which reflects the light in a way that creates a 3D image.
The innovation developed by IQ Structures enables the creation of a 3D hologram, which can be observed from different angles.
"Moreover, the hologram is fully synthetic, hence all of its properties can be observed using a computer," the company said in a press release. The synthetic hologram can display even non-existing objects and various devices can be controlled by using it. The company's director Tomas Tethal said he saw potential for use of this technology in medicine, too. The technology enables exact spatial imaging using computer technology, while being relatively cheap even when used on a large scale.
