Proto Hologram Expands into Airport Terminals
The first free-standing, life-like hologram device in an airport is at JFK Terminal 4, featuring arts and culture content, and the occasional live interactive beam-in from Howie Mandel; “My airline of choice is Proto!”
/EIN News/ -- New York, NY, May 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Proto, the original patented hologram device and platform that makes holoportation a reality, announced today that its advisor Howie Mandel will beam in live to surprise travelers at JFK Terminal 4, operated by JFKIAT. The America’s Got Talent star is celebrating the recently expanded use of Proto at the terminal, including the presentation of Bronx Zoo Director Jim Breheny introducing sloths, alligators, pelicans, and warthogs in holographic form.
The people, animals and objects in the Proto units appear in life-size, volumetric 4K – looking exactly as if they are physically present in the terminal. When a guest beams in live, they can interact with travelers in real time. Proto’s AI capabilities are also being explored for future interactive traveler experiences.

Mandel has previously recorded a hologram explaining Terminal 4’s T4 Arts & Culture program and the Proto technology, and now he will beam there live for the first time.
“Excited about traveling through JFK Terminal 4 today. My airline of choice is Proto,” said Howie Mandel. “I love to travel without traveling – Beam me there!”

To see the New York area’s best people and places represented in our devices in this amazing space really is a dream come true.”
