The idea is to create holograms that are safe to touch.
A team of Japanese scientists say they’ve done just that: created three-dimensional virtual objects that can be safely handled.
To do so, they’ve used laser speeds that defy imagination: one millionth of one billionth of a second.
It’s called “femtosecond laser technology” or more popularly, “Fairy Lights,” and it’s the product of research at the Utsunomiya University Center for Optical Research and Education.
At the centre of it is Dr. Yoichi Ochiai of Tsukuba University, a media artist who once fronted a one-man band consisting of himself, his electric guitar and his computer, and who used Microsoft’s 3D Moviemaker a lot as a kid.
He presented a paper called “Fairy Lights in Femtoseconds: Aerial and Volumetric Graphics Rendered by Focused Femtosecond Laser Combined with Computational Holographic Fields” to the Siggraph 2015 conference in Los Angele

ONE STEP CLOSER TO FULL 3D HOLOGRAPHIC INTERACTIVE WAIFUS
srsly it looks interesting but primitive, and "one millionth of one billionth of a second" laser speed seems spelling it cannot handle anything complex.
