HoloDesk Logo
The HoloDesk logo incorporates three principal elements. The circles are a throw back to the media originally and still used in the DJ industry - vinyl 45s and LP, the background elements bring the logo into the modern era drawing on the graphical GUI on a digital touch screen interface. The two red stroke marks draw out the elements associated with the interactive aspects of the HoloDesk and the accompanying red centre dot is about you the DJ, the centre piece of the experience.

Multi Touch Interactive Content Management Software is the strategic key that makes the Holo-Info-Desk come alive that allows all types of common media to come alive at a user’s finger touch.
One of the solutions is our OmniTapps media wheel solution that brings together a diversion range of access routes to media. The versatile back end allows custom set up, menus to be disabled or switched on. This feature allows the application to be configured to a wide range of applications as diverse as a real estate or or table top in a club. Furthermore adapting it to a class room or expo is actually a few mouse clicks requiring NO GEEK Coding.
Multi touch software for the Holo-Info-Desk and iQRite systems
For the expo or retail store the ability to print our brochures at a finger touch means every single brochure will be the latest version and NO More wasted paper or having to do print runs before a promotion or simply saves the brochure to a USB memory stick.
For the music store or video rental store the application provides the perfect interface for shoppers to check out the latest music videos and movies.

During the last few months we have been extending the HoloDesk range that includes both projection and flat panel displays to cater for the ever expanding market for large format touch surfaces.
The 50 inch bench top configuration of the Holo-Info-Desk is ideal when you want an in your face size multi touch screen and mobility. The stand packs down to an insignificant size, whilst the screen at 50 inch is still transportable. Pictured is the interface for the ITEX NZ IT conference to be held in Auckland in November where over 400 IT managers will be introduced to the Holo-Info-Desk format in both projection and flat panel scenarios.
Using a Holo-Info-Desk is ideal for conferences both on the exhibit floor to promote your products but also by the organisers who wish to allow users to discover information about exhibitors, floor plan, seminar speakers and special promotions.

Holo-Info-Desk is a unique multi-touch system developed in NZ that brings the growing popularity of interactive touch control to a diverse range of environments and applications.
The Holo-Info-Desk pictured in this video is based on the interactive framed projection technology which is one of the options that Holo-Info-Desk is offered as. The surface is a suspended 6mm surface without an enclosure.
The Holo-Info-Desk is a large size multi touch solution and interactive content management system for use in a wide variety of applications. It is manufactured in flat panel and projection based models.
The system is available in 2,6,10,16,32 touch points according to the size and overall budget and application requirements.
To implement large format multi touch surfaces, required substantially expensive hardware, a large programming budget and a bunch of programming geeks. Today Holo-Info-Desk has changed that on all three counts thanks to the
innovative Holo-Info-Desk solution.
The Holo-Info-Desk concept has been designed to maximise many conceiveable options and even to the point of adapting hardware you already own.
Interactive Surfaces are the new way to engage with content. Steve Jobs helped us out alot as he has taught the world to stretch, pinch, swipe with your fingers. We now carry on the legacy he has left us with the with the Holo-Info-Desk but this time you will not be able to put the surface in your pocket.
The Holo-Info-Desk is a development of the well known HoloDesk interactive DJ Mixer that first appeared on the world stage when Deadmau5 used a 74″ HoloDesk in his Earls Court, London concert where it became the first sell out concert in the venue. Subsequently the HoloDesk became featured as the first large format interactive DJ Mixer to be featured in music concert DVD by a headline performer.
AucklandICT, an Auckland based industry organisation takes advantage of the Holo-Info-Desk to promote its members at the Rutherford Forum industry conferences in September.
The Rutherford Forum activities are part of the Rugby World Cup related activities to promote NZ business and innovation. http://rutherfordinnovationshowcase.co.nz
AucklandICT is an industry organisation based in Auckland, New Zealand. Members come from a range of industry sectors that serve requirements both locally and international that are predominately in ICT (Information, Communication and Technology) Each month the organisation meets to listen to a key note speaker, share success updates, networking and more recently have begun to actively utilise social media and online platforms. Within AucklandICT there is the Electronics Interest Group (ETG) AucklandICT that meets once a month over breakfast to discuss projects, topics of interest, training.
The HoloDesk story started well before it entered the public domain, but when it did it set a new bench mark for international DJ concerts and live performances.
The European global debut was in the most royal of cities – London with a king of the dance floor, Deadmau5. The sellout Earls Court concert stunned the crowds when Deadmau5 took to the centre stage to perform Arguru on the 74″ inch HoloDesk interactive touch surface.
The crowd reaction was enthusiastic as Deadmau5 introduced a new way for DJ’s to perform live on the dual imaging touch interactive surface. The following day the viral nature of social media took over as the word spread like wildfire that DJ hardware had taken a major step turning science fiction into commercial reality.
For creator, inventor and technologist behind the concept, Kevin Andreassend was convinced that the time was ripe to begin the journey of redefining and introducing large format multi touch in live concerts some years before. First seen in the Tom Cruise Minority film, Kevin and his partners at about the same time were planning on how to develop this type of system to the international market, but first they had to invent the actual touch technology. Skip ahead a few years and in the meantime Apple educated the market on the concept of multi touch in the pocket by way of of the iPhone and more recently iPad. Microsoft stirred the imagination with their 42 inch flat panel solution called The Surface. This validated Kevin’s idea but he wanted to go one step further…he wanted to make it huge, so huge that it would take a van to transport an assembled unit, and so was borne the 74″ dia, 1.7m h x 2m wide HoloDesk. Some other crucial parameters was that it had to be dual imaging and no more than 6mm thick and seem like a floating image.
During the year since its debut on the global stage, it was still the biggest secret in New Zealand. Kevin explains, “we wanted to to continue to develop the HoloDesk concept, and control the time launch in our home market. The international opportunities were far greater off shore and so it was natural for us to focus in the European and USA markets.
The HoloDesk Nite Club down in The Cloud
During the beginning of 2011, the New Zealand Government and associated Departments were extensively involved in developing the Innovation Showcase in The Cloud as part of the Rugby World Cup Queens Wharf fan zone. A number of Government officials and industry personnel surveyed NZ industry, as a result HoloDesk was invited to participate in the showcase named “We do things Different”.
Beginning September The HoloDesk is appearing in a number of events, expos and conferences associated around the Rugby World Cup for the 1,000′s visiting New Zealand.
Also timed for the same period, has been the launch of the Holo-Info-Desk with its engaging multi touch software that allows users to access and interactive with a wide selection of media and data sources. Holo-Info-Desk will also ship in a education, retail, meeting room, presentation and expo versions in a range of physical formats.
HoloDesk gears up for the Rugby World Cup 2011 as New Zealand is the host for the largest sporting event to come to the remote country. starting in 3 weeks time and will run from September to October and has become a show case event of what is NZ in every aspect.
HoloDesk is also playing a prominent role and is to be one of 28 companies to be featured in the $7,000,000 principal fan zone venue called The Cloud, down on one of the earliest wharf built in Auckland’s harbour.
The Cloud will be the host of numerous offical functions, business meetings, technology and innovation expo, entertain zone for fashion, concerts and a range of events that demonstrate New Zealand’s culture.
HoloDesk and ICE AV are sponsoring the display and interactive technology for the VEX Robotics world championships that will be held in the venue and concurrent activities at the Rutherford Forum and AucklandICT South Pacific Entreprenuer’s sponsored BBQ event.
Recently ICE AV has been preparing to let the local market see what it has been developing in recent times. The HoloDesk has initially been launched in the off shore market to a rapturous reception and now HoloDesk is going to surprise the NZ market and international visitor. We wanted the local market to experience the Holodesk in conjunction with the Rugby World Cup and the timing is all working out well.
Recent national media publicity has given the local market an sneak insight to the HoloDesk that has begun to create a lot of early interest in the HoloDesk Surface.
The HoloDesk has begun to capture the imagination of the local market.
Brazilian music producer Amon Tobin has created a visual delight with projection mapping in his audio visual show ISAM.
The concert called ISAM is currently on tour for a six city tour in Europe. Projection mapping is based on mapping projected images onto three dimensional surfaces and using precise positioning to use the surfaces and edges that takes advantages of the depth in the screen.
The highly ambitious, breathtaking ‘ISAM’ live show sees Tobin stepping away from previous DJ centric performances. Instead he has developed a large scale live audio/visual experience to select cities around the world. Designed in conjunction with Blasthaus, VSquared Labs, Vita Motus Design, Leviathan and others.
