Using anamorphosis perspective projection and the accelerometer HoloToy produces realtime images that emulate reality based on a constant viewing angle. In english, these are interactive customizable 3D scenes and games that appear to live both within and outside of your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad!
HoloToy has 13 interactive 3D Holograms so far, including 4 games and the ability to make your own holograms! HoloToy will also run in HD on your iPad and iPhone 4, at no extra cost and when run on the iPhone 4 has the option of realtime head tracking using the front facing camera!

this thing is unreal on an iPad
Botvinnik
simple games, but the 3D on an iPad is fabulous..incredible potential...no 3D glasses!
Ehhh..

Do not buy!!!!!!!!!!! This app is kind of fun but it's useless. It is way too hard to make holograms, practically everything else is useless, and that robot needs a real laser and a bigger playpen.Waste of space!!!!!!
Enjoyable variety, no particular purpose.

A dozen or so toys, linked by the three-dimensional effect which depends on the device's motion. You'll find water, fish, rolling balls, some simple mini-games that keep score, robot-things, planets, and if you're creative and patient, you can turn your own photos into 3D photos, kind of. This is hard to get exactly right, but easy to get bizarrely sort of right. The developer has updated the app with new toys and features from time to time. Not super-polished, but stable. One of my most worthwhile app-dollars in my estimation.
Boring. Deleted. :(

Same concept as "Diorama", but without the fun. Gameplay - it does matter! I'm unhappy I wasted my money on this. It looks like someone put a fair amount of effort into the technical aspects, but that doesn't translate to worthwhile entertainment.
Decent

The 3D is cool, but it is not so realistic that you would reach out and try to grab it.
Has possibilities

but...c'mon. Anaglyphs are fun but are NOT holographs. I expected more though I will say the one-eye viewing technique does work. Maybe if you made it so you could view video within the app it would be a cool idea.
Yeah. But…........…...

I like it. It's a great app and it works fine. HEAD TRACKING: NEEDS improvement!!!! It can NEVER find my head! Gyro: The Beast Accel: Meh. CatBot Jumpalot IMPOSSIBLE! IT MAKES YOU GO SLOWER BY THE SECOND!!! Bot Thingy That I forgot the name of that's a robot ITS AWESOME Picture Making impossible. Beans No Pizza Yeah! Let's have fun
Epic
Yo akornrulz
I know epic means a long heroic story but it also mean TREMENDOUS so that is what this app is the only bad thing is that it's messin up my I touch but it is so BEAST that I don't even care!!!lI this app.
