The [[Covenant]]'s holographic technology is also based primarily on that of the Forerunners, and though superior to UNSC technology it still pales in comparison. The Covenant use holograms for visual displays of space and ground combat, allowing a better general view of the action and better coordination. Holograms are also used as decoys, through devices known as [[holo-drone]]s, able to generate their own shields and weapons to give the illusion of reality. One of these was used by the [[Sesa 'Refumee's heretic faction|heretic]] leader [[Sesa 'Refumee]] before his death at the hands of the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]]. | The [[Covenant]]'s holographic technology is also based primarily on that of the Forerunners, and though superior to UNSC technology it still pales in comparison.

As shown by the ability of holo-drones to use weaponry, certain Covenant holograms are somehow capable of physically interacting with their environment. The Prophets, in particular, make extensive use of holography in their governance of the Covenant.
