This is our most desperate hour. Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
You're my only hope.
Their village happens to be resting on

MATT: If I've learned anything from Hollywood,
it's that holograms are really cool -
and I want one.
Unfortunately, they've never quite made the transition
from the silver screen to actually existing in real life.
It turns out making a workable hologram
is incredibly difficult,
but people are definitely trying,
and recently these guys got their hands on something
that's pretty close.
I'm Sahib. I'm Kaartic.
And we use this volumetric display to basically model this car
into a more digital and interactive way.
OK. So it's not really a hologram.
That's why they call it a volumetric display.
But it's an interesting step in that direction.
And this school decided to use it as part of their presentation
for the F1 in Schools competition,
which is all about designing and racing your own mini F1 car.
It's probably the closest thing we have to a hologram
without the use of lasers or any mirrors.
It's basically a screen going up and down 30 times a second,
creating, you know, a visual aspect of a 3-D display.
It produces a lot of images per second
and it's so quick that we can't recognise it,
and that's why it looks like
as if it's a 3-D moving picture or animation.
And that's what helps us to really detail the components of our car
and really express what our car is made out of.
Now they're passing on some of what they've learned
to one of their schools newer teams.
ALL: We are Lickety Split.
They're currently looking at different ways
of using the technology,
to explore and demonstrate their car.
In fact, do you want me to show you how it works?
And they say there are heaps of possibilities.
Well, it's actually got a lot of different functions.
You can map out, you can use graphs,
you can do maths in it if you really want to.
You can design anything and you can display anything
of whatever your design is on this machine,
so it really doesn't have any limitations to that.
For biology, you can really get down into the nits and grits
of how the human body works.
You can... This display's capable of producing images so clear
and to such good detail that you can display, you know,
the whole human skeletal system in a very precise manner.
It is something that's amazing and innovative and creative and new.
You can even see your own reflections on this.
So while they've got a lot of work to do on their car
and deciding the best way they can show it off,
they're pretty confident this technology will help them go far.
They want new things, innovative things,
things they haven't seen before.
So that's what we're trying to push for
to discover and create and do with our team.
