 The UNSC uses holographic technology in a variety of ways. [[Artificial Intelligence]]s, such as [[Cortana]], project holographic representations of themselves for personal communications with humans, with each AI taking a [[Avatar|unique appearance]] of their own choice. The UNSC also uses holograms for communications between individual humans. The commanding officer of one ship may "appear" on another to deliver a message when normally access between the two vessels is restricted. Many UNSC warships, such as the {{UNSCShip|Spirit of Fire}} and the {{UNSCShip|Say My Name}} had holographic tables, used to project topographical maps or other images for tactical purposes.
-Holography also has many civilian uses. For example, some nightclubs such as [[Club Errera]] make extensive use of holograms.<ref>'''[[Halo: Reach]]''', campaign level ''[[New Alexandria (level)|New Alexandria]]''</ref> Humans also use holographic technology to display holographic "photographs", referred to as [[Holo-Still]]s. Holographic tape is used to display information on the sides of civilian vehicles.<ref>'''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]''', ''Chapter 5, page 77''</ref>

-The [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]]'s holographic technology is also based primarily on that of the Forerunners, and though superior to UNSC technology it still pales in comparison. Covenant often utilize stationary Holotanks much like the UNSC, but also [[Portable holo-pedestal|portable projectors]]. The Covenant use holograms for visual displays of space and ground combat, allowing a better general view of the action and better coordination.<ref>In the background on the [[Shadow of Intent]]</ref> 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|Heretic Leader]] before his death at the hands of the [[Thel 'Vadam|Arbiter]].<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''' ''level [[The Heretic (level)|The Heretic]]</ref> The Covenant also utilize less sophisticated [[Armor Abilities#Hologram|holographic decoys]] in the field, a technology which has also been replicated by the UNSC.<ref>'''Halo: Reach'''</ref>

-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. Religious sermons, such as those by the [[Prophet of Truth]]<ref>'''[[Halo 3]]''' ''levels [[Tsavo Highway (level)|Tsavo Highway]], [[The Storm (level)|The Storm]], [[The Ark (level)|The Ark]] and [[The Covenant (level)|The Covenant]]''</ref> and [[Prophet of Regret]]<ref>'''[[Halo 2]]''', ''levels [[Delta Halo (level)|Delta Halo]] and [[Regret (level)|Regret]]''</ref>, are transmitted holographically, allowing the Prophets to preach from the relative safety of their point of transmission while protected by [[Honor Guard|armed guards]].
