Holoverse is an amusement attraction on the Gold Coast, Australia, that opened in June 2016.
The centre is owned by Euclideon Entertainment, founded by Bruce Dell in 2017, who developed the technology for the public to experience the holograms.Hinchliffe, Jessica, Australian Broadcasting Commission "Brisbane Man Set To Open World First Hologram Centre" http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-06/brisbane-man-set-to-open-world-first-hologram-centre/7386716 6 May 2017
Holoverse uses entertainment technology that creates artificial environments and objects that are described as holograms.
It was opened by the Premier of Queensland, Annastacia Palaszczuk.
The centre contains 40 hologram rooms, is the first centre of its kind in Australia, and is said to house the largest number of them in the world. In November 2018, Holoverse's parent company Euclideon announced it would be installing their new 'hologram arcade tables' into Holoverse.
The technology differs from standard virtual reality, in which users wear screens over their eyes, headsets through which they are unable to see their own torso, arms or legs. Whereas in a VR CAVE, instead of going into the computer game, the person wears clear glasses and can see their own body, the computer-generated objects appearing to be in the real world with them.
