Mounting Display Holograms
There are many ways to display holograms. There are no standards for mounting display holograms, and often the client will have their own ideas.
One popular mounting technique involves fixing the image to an oversized piece of bevelled glass. The glass hologram is fixed with special tape to the glass-mounting sheet. Both the hologram and the mounting glass can be screen printed or sandblasted with graphics, company logo or text. Holograms cannot reproduce exact colours, so the screen printing process allows logos and other corporate graphics to be perfectly colour matched, even to the Pantone level. The surface of a display hologram is normal float glass. Anything that can be done to normal glass surface, can be done to a hologram surface.
Consideration must also be given as to how the mounted hologram will be fixed to a wall or ceiling. One of the most elegant methods is to use suspended cables. The various fittings are available off the shelf, or can be specially made by any number of engineering companies. This is particularly relevant to back lit transmission holograms, where they must be positioned in such a way as to allow light to pass through the hologram from behind.
