Another ex?Mple.:,-Thousands of people today are working on designing large industrial
and dwe].l:l.mg com_plh8.es. But it is tremendously difficult to produce a design with
a. three 3imeas :i,~ 1, mock-up. And then Its flaw,,, cegin to appear. But the s'cc'1.l.abo.ra-
tion'6 of electronic conaac ;ers and. holographic methods makes it possible not only to
shorten to minutes the t1_rae of dcterminf.ng the optimal configura.t:ion of buildings
but also to demonstrate in space an entire building and its location in the general
plan of streets, squares, and the ci.t:y.
A propos of this, holography turns . completely new page in the development of
electronic computers themselves. Pt makes it possible to produce a computer memory
with a density of up to 100 million units of information per square centimeter. It
will be possible to put: the entire contents of any mualtivolume work on a plate the
size of a postage stamp.
Such. is the outline cha.rac;ter:iz .rg the uses of holography. It is already possible
to foresee the enermnis poteratiali.ti.es of this still. young science.
