Looking Glass Factory has developed an end-to-end holographic platform, with a lineup of displays that can show content in life-like 3D without the need for headsets or head-tracking. The investments were made through Accenture’s Accenture Ventures investment arm.

In addition to funding, Project Spotlight connects emerging technology startups with the Global 2000 to fill strategic innovation gaps, and it offers extensive access to Accenture’s domain expertise and enterprise clients. Terms of the transactions were not disclosed.
