Yes. The Holobox has anti-reflection glass, a custom-engineered light box, and a high luminance transparent LCD tuned for daylight visibility. Runs in hotel lobbies with south-facing windows, retail spaces with skylights, hospital consult rooms with bright fluorescent lighting, and sheltered outdoor event tents.
The three components that make it work
- Anti-reflection glass on the display face minimises reflected ambient light. Viewers see the hologram rather than themselves.
- Custom-engineered light box behind the transparent LCD produces directional luminance strong enough to overcome ambient interior light.
- High luminance transparent LCD tuned for the specific brightness range B2B interior environments demand hospitality reception, retail, hospital consult rooms, corporate lobbies.
Real deployments in daylight-heavy environments
- Aiden by Best Western hotel lobbies, bright, often south-facing, with substantial daylight ingress. The holographic AI check-in host is visible without an issue.
- ITC-ILO Turin classrooms, daylight classroom environment with fluorescent overhead lighting. Guest-lecturer holograms deliver at full clarity.
- Retail flagship activations, including store-window installations where the Holobox is visible from the street. High-visibility placement, engineered for daylight-facing display.
- Trade-show stands, convention-centre lighting is generally strong. Holoconnects deployments at CES, MWC, and HSMAI events run in these environments.
When to plan around lighting
- Direct sunlight on the display face. Common for west-facing lobbies at sunset. Recommend either repositioning the unit or applying a light screening film to the affected windows.
- Fully-outdoor deployment. Standard Holobox is engineered for interior use. Fully-exposed outdoor deployment requires a bespoke installation review.
- Direct rain / weather exposure. Not recommended without the specific weather-resistant configuration. Talk to a Holoconnects project manager for outdoor-facing scenarios.
