🤓☝️ Note from the expert
In audio, “holography” refers to a system’s ability to create a three-dimensional soundstage, with sounds that appear to be precisely positioned in width, depth, and sometimes height. This effect relies on stereo, binaural audio, or immersive technologies, but the term is also sometimes used to describe particularly convincing spatial imaging.
