3-D hologram phones

High-tech 3-D hologram phones - like the one used in Star Wars - could soon be installed on the high-street, according to The Sun.

"Boffins in Japan claim to have developed technology for image chambers - similar to the one used by Princess Leia in the film.

Trials have shown that a tiny 10-inch tall 3-D version of a person can be created in a cylindrical tube.

And developers say the same technology - dubbed SeeLinder - could be on the market in the near future".
