Hologram vs. Iridescent

Hologramnoun

A three-dimensional image of an object created by holography.

Hologramnoun

A photographic image giving the observer a seemingly three-dimensional view of the represented object. The three-dimensional effect is produced by exposing a photographic recording medium to an interference pattern generated by a coherent beam of light (as from a laser) reflected from the subject, interacting with a beam directly from the source. The full three-dimensional effect requires illumination of the image with coherent light, but less perfect three-dimensional visual effects may also be observed when the hologram is illuminated with white light.

Hologramnoun

the intermediate photograph (or photographic record) that contains information for reproducing a three-dimensional image by holography

Hologramnoun

a three-dimensional image formed by the interference of light beams from a laser or other coherent light source.
