ELHere's a demo from a couple of years ago that shows how to make a Pepper's Ghost reflection effect using your phone and a plastic dome drink lid.
If you don’t know, a Pepper’s Ghost is a type of special effect that uses reflections to create the illusion of something that isn’t really there. It was made popular in the late 1800s by John Pepper and that’s where the name comes from. Although it sounds very old-timey, the term is still used today. Sometimes it’s marketed with the term “hologram” since we all sort of know from movies what that means. However, if you want to find out more about this specific effect, it’s best to search for the term “Pepper’s Ghost” instead. If you learn how to make actual holograms using holography, please send me what you make because that sounds complicated and very cool.
You can find #pepperghost in theme parks, movies, HUD displays in vehicles, games, stage shows, and other art and DIY projects like mine.
