Their core work

Holografika is a Budapest-based SME that develops and manufactures glasses-free 3D (light field) display systems for professional visualization, telepresence, and immersive applications. Their core product line centers on large-format holographic displays that render true 3D images visible to multiple viewers without special eyewear. Within EU projects, they contribute specialized display hardware and visualization expertise to consortia working on areas ranging from underwater cultural heritage to computational fabrication and full parallax imaging research. They sit at the intersection of display optics, real-time 3D rendering, and human visual perception — a niche occupied by very few companies in Europe.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Holografika's early H2020 involvement (2015-2016) concentrated on the hardware side of 3D displays: manufacturing processes (Optintegral), quality of experience metrics (QoE-Net), and training researchers in full parallax imaging (ETN-FPI). Their later projects show a clear shift toward the full 3D pipeline — not just displaying content but also capturing, processing, and fabricating it, as seen in EVOCATION's focus on acquisition, geometry processing, and computational fabrication. This progression suggests a company moving from being a display hardware provider to positioning itself across the entire 3D content chain.

Holografika is expanding from pure display technology into end-to-end 3D workflows including capture, processing, and fabrication — making them increasingly relevant for digital twin and telepresence applications.

How they like to work

Holografika operates exclusively as a participant, never leading consortia — consistent with a specialist SME that contributes deep domain expertise rather than managing large projects. With 55 unique partners across 19 countries from just 5 projects, they integrate into large, diverse consortia (averaging 11+ partners per project). This broad but non-leading pattern indicates a well-connected technology provider that research groups and integrators seek out specifically for their 3D display capabilities.

Despite being a small company, Holografika has built connections with 55 distinct partners across 19 countries — an unusually wide network for an SME with 5 projects. Their reach spans most of the EU, suggesting they are a recognized go-to partner for 3D display expertise in European research.

What sets them apart

Holografika occupies an extremely rare niche: they are one of the very few European companies that actually manufactures glasses-free 3D display systems, not just researches them. This makes them a natural partner for any consortium needing real hardware for immersive visualization, telepresence, or 3D content delivery. Their combination of display manufacturing capability with growing expertise in 3D capture and geometry processing means they can contribute across the full visualization chain — from acquiring 3D data to showing it on a physical display.

Highlights from their portfolio

• Optintegral
  Their largest single grant (EUR 604K) focused on manufacturing advertisement displays via hybrid in-mould integration — their most commercially oriented project.
• EVOCATION
  Their most recent and technically broadest project, covering 3D capture, display, and fabrication in a single framework — signals their strategic direction.
• ETN-FPI
  A Marie Curie training network on Full Parallax Imaging (EUR 448K), showing Holografika's role in training the next generation of 3D imaging researchers.
