Effect
Hologram
Stacked holographic scan planes around the object, with scanlines, colour split, a grid, glitches and flicker. Use for sci-fi displays and futuristic UI.

Hologram slices an object with a stack of horizontal, see-through scan planes, as if a sci-fi display were projecting it. Scanlines sweep across each plane with a slight red and blue fringe, a fine grid glows over them, and every so often the image jumps sideways in a glitch or dims in a flicker.
How it works
The planes are evenly spaced from below the object to above it. On each one, bands of light scroll steadily, drawn three times with a small offset so the colour channels separate the way they do in a misaligned projector. Soft interference fringes drift across the planes. At random moments a band of the image shifts sideways and settles back, and the whole hologram briefly drops in brightness. Every few seconds the planes rebuild from the bottom up, as if the projection were assembling itself again. Everything is added as light, so the object stays visible through the stack.
Settings
- Scanline Count: how many scan planes are stacked.
- Scan Speed: how fast the bands scroll.
- Flicker Amount: how often the brightness drops.
- Grid Enabled: the fine grid overlay.
- Glitch Enabled: the random sideways jumps.
- Scan Color: the colour of the whole projection.
- Intensity and Opacity.
Use it for
Futuristic product reveals, sci-fi displays and HUDs, tech and AI branding. The Hologram scan object effect turns the object itself into a projection, and Glitch post-processing works on the whole frame.
Code and API
Ready-to-paste React Three Fiber code and the 3DRise API are included in paid plans, inside the studio.

Data Stream
Spiraling particle stream flowing inward or outward. Use for sci-fi tech, energy flow, data viz.
Field Lines
Analytic magnetic dipole field lines around the object, with trapped particles bouncing between mirror points like the Van Allen belts. Use for sci-fi planets, energy cores, magnetism.
Lichtenberg
A Lichtenberg figure grown by the dielectric breakdown model: a glowing fern of electricity creeps over the surface, holds, fades and regrows. Use for energy, sci-fi, power and lightning scenes.
Portal
A wormhole funnel shaped like Flamm's paraboloid: a lensed view into another universe, Keplerian swirl and infalling, blueshifting matter. Use for portals, sci-fi gates, rifts.
Strange Attractor
Glowing trails of a Lorenz, Aizawa or Thomas strange attractor, integrated with RK4; neighbouring strands drift apart. Use for chaos, science, data art, energy.
Aura
Soft pulsing glow shell around the object. Use for magical, mystical, holy effects.
Works well with
Glitch
Glitch post-processing: short bursts of digital break-up across a 3D scene at random intervals, for tech, gaming and music looks.
Post-processing effectHologram scan
Scan a 3D object into a glowing hologram with a sweeping plane of light, then switch it off, or keep it as a hologram.
Object effectHolographic Crosshair
A holographic crosshair cursor: a spinning targeting ring with four ticks that follows the mouse. For games, HUD interfaces and sci-fi product pages.
CursorChromatic Aberration
Chromatic aberration post-processing: split the colour channels into thin fringes for a lens, VHS or glitchy screen look.
Post-processing effectElectric
High-frequency blue-white lightning on every line: a hard core, a blue glow, fast flicker and strikes that come and go.
Line EffectsGhost
Glowing signal packets racing along every line with fading trails and glitch flicker, in phosphor green.
