- South Korea deploys a hologram police officer in Seoul to combat crime.
- Crimes reported during the hologram's active hours have decreased by 22%.
- The hologram, 1.7 meters tall, is based on a real officer and wears a full uniform.
- It operates nightly from 7pm to 10pm in Jodong No 3 Park, delivering pre-recorded messages.
- Messages remind passers-by of surveillance and real-time police response to emergencies.
- Developed by Hologrammica, it's part of the 'Safe Park' program targeting disorder-prone areas.
- The hologram's presence has a psychological impact, despite not being able to intervene physically.
