Nictiz described it as the minister being logged in to the future of digital care, which made the day's subject visible straight away rather than explained. ## What happened after the hologram opening? After the opening, chair Sabine Uitslag took over the Festival Digitale Toegang, organised by Nictiz and the Dutch Ministry of Health. The programme continued with plenary contributions, an expert and supplier area and a cybersecurity escape room, all at DeFabrique in Utrecht on 30 November 2023. ## Why use a hologram instead of an in-person appearance? At the Festival Digitale Toegang, HEREweHOLO's Holobox let the speaker stay where they were and appear at true size in the room, so nobody had to travel for the opening. HEREweHOLO says this saves diaries, travel time and emissions, and creates a moment visitors are still talking about afterwards. ## What is the Holobox that was used? The Holobox is HEREweHOLO's life-size hologram display. It shows people, products and 3D objects at true size without glasses or a headset, and can present live from anywhere in the world or play pre-produced 4K content with special effects. It is plug and play: plug it in and start presenting. ## What are the Holobox specifications and price? HEREweHOLO's Holobox Large is 220 cm high, 137 cm wide and 80 cm deep, weighs 220 kg and shows 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) at 60 Hz, with an optional 120 Hz configuration depending on content. The published starting price is €27,500 excluding VAT. Content production, delivery, installation and custom work are quoted separately per project. Rental pricing depends on duration, location, logistics, display and content, and HEREweHOLO offers a tailored quote within one business day. ## What does it take to install a Holobox? A HEREweHOLO Holobox installation typically takes about one hour. The location needs a standard power socket, stable internet and suitable indoor floor space. HEREweHOLO delivers, installs, loads and tests content, and trains the customer's team. The Holobox is built for indoor or covered locations; for permanent outdoor installations exposed to weather the company recommends an LED wall. ## Frequently asked questions ### Who organised the Festival Digitale Toegang?
