I Built a Desk with a HOLOGRAM Display

Brief

Work From Hype's tutorial-style build log documents a DIY transparent, hologram-like desk display. The video compares hologram vs transparent display (01:39), outlines the build plan and projector selection (03:06–03:41), shows mounting and screen procurement (05:02–06:08), and demonstrates mixed outcomes due to alignment and visibility challenges, with both successful and failed demos at the end.

Why it matters

Work From Hype (published 2026-05-01) attempted a DIY transparent hologram-like desk display using a projector (mentions AWOL Vision) and a custom mounting system, with the build plan laid out at 03:06 and the display choice discussed at 03:41.

Key details

  • The creator sourced a suitable screen at 06:08 but ran into alignment/visibility problems—noted at 10:12 (“holograms are hard”)—resulting in mixed results shown in Demo Part 1 (10:55, the good stuff) and Demo Part 2 (12:22, the not good stuff).

In this video I try and create a desk setup with a transparent hologram like display.
