| Holographic Films |
Holography is an innovative and attractive way to create three-dimensional pictures that can be viewed without any special equipment. These pictures can be used in a variety of applications, from package or credit card security to medical imaging for more precise images and detail-oriented mapping.
The global Holographic
Films Market was valued at US$ 9,833.6 Mn in 2022, exhibiting a CAGR of
9.88 % over the forecast period (2023 to 2030) and is expected to reach US$
20,895.8 Mn by 2030.
Holographic
Films
can be applied to a variety of materials and surfaces to create special effects.
Typical applications include adding security codes to products, branding
packaging, and creating specialty gift cards and bags. They are often
metalized or treated to improve lamination and reduce the risk of scratches
or damage. Holograms can also be used in medical settings to help patients
track blood flow or other important parameters. Many studios possess the
necessary equipment for recording holograms. Typical equipment includes a
continuous wave laser, optical devices for directing the laser light, a film
holder, and an isolation table on which the exposure is made. Stability is
extremely important during exposure, as movement as little as a quarter of
a wavelength can spoil the hologram. Global Fluoropolymers
Films Market was valued at US$ 1.9 Bn in 2022, exhibiting a CAGR of
6.31 % in terms of revenue, over the forecast period (2023 to 2030) to reach
US$ 3.1 Bn by 2030.
Along with recording 3-D images, holograms can also be used
to encode data and transmit information through a variety of media. The most
common form of this technology is known as optical phase conjugation. This is
similar to how the twinkle of stars in space is created, and it has numerous
applications in free-space optical communications, including compensating for
atmospheric turbulence. Another application of Holographic
Films
is the ability to add security codes or other identifying marks to products,
both to protect the integrity of the product and to make it easier for
retailers to verify authenticity. This can be done either through the use of
holographic markers or by embedding the hologram directly in the product
itself.
Holographic Films can be used in printing
applications. They can be bonded to sealable films to produce form, fill and
seal roll stock packaging. They can also be bonded to paper for creating
consumer packaging and specialty gift cards and bags. They can even be extruded and coated with sealable polyethylene to manufacture metallic balloons, or covered
with specific adhesives to create holographic hot stamping foil for decorative
application to paper and card stock.
Diageo's Johnnie
Walker and PORTL partnered up for a launched 4K AI holographic interface, in
December 2021. This interface will allow customers in interacting with the
holographic display.
