ArticleBody:Ford has a far-off vision of one day using holographic technology popularized in sci-fi to create digital representations of cops and guard dogs to deter would-be criminals. A recently published patent filing from the automaker details how multiple integrated holographic camera modules could be used to create “moveable and interactive holograms” inside and outside of a vehicle.

If an individual were to touch or walk through the hologram, an alert could be sent to the vehicle’s owner. The vehicle would come loaded with an inventory of pre-stored holographic images. One of the illustrations shows what looks like a holographic guard dog, presumably used to patrol a vehicle. It almost seems like the digital equivalent of the growling junkyard dog, though the dog in Ford’s drawing isn’t exactly what you would call intimidating.
