A Proto holographic display booth appeared in a recent episode of The Kardashians.
In the show, which was broadcast on streaming platform Hulu, Kris Jenner visited Proto Studios and beamed to multiple Proto units around her daughter Khloe’s home in Calabasas for interactive conversations. It marked the first time Proto has appeared on a non-competition, unscripted show.
The preceding night, Proto had made its second appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, as part of People’s Sexiest Man Alive reveal, when Patrick Dempsey appeared as a hologram with VR masks.
Proto also features on the current seasons of Indian reality TV show Bigg Boss Telegu and Indonesian singing competition Trending Star.
The holographic units are increasingly moving from marketing TV networks and streaming services such as HBO, Netflix and Waave to becoming part of the content of the shows, having also recently appeared on America’s Got Talent and Whitney Cummings Comedy Roast.
The booths, which earlier this year earned SOC 2 Type 2 certification for their confidentiality standards, have also been deployed in mock trials in US courts and in a demo to test how holographic units might aid America Sign Language communication.
