Convert any image into a hologram
Using the power of AI and some Looking Glass magic you can now turn any image into a hologram in just seconds. Give it a try at 🔗 blocks.glass
Casting requires Looking Glass Bridge 2.3 or newer, make sure that Bridge 2.3 is running, and your Looking Glass is ready in desktop mode.
Need help with Bridge? Check out this page here.
With Looking Glass Blocks you can now upload any 2D image and convert that into an awesome hologram to share, cast, or view on any internet connected device.
Photos with good contrast, high detail and lots of objects will come out great. Here are some examples of our favorites:
