He has been listed on Wikipedia (often vandalised) and on Answers.com since 2005, and on Canadian Who's Who since 2008.
He has 3 + 1 children. He leads a hyper-ecological minimalist/logicalist no-pet no-TV salt-less sugar-less cash-less lifestyle. His core values are genuine substance over superficial appearance (function over form), and utopian and optimistic future of the Star Trek franchise. He is a free spirit and an ultimate hipster, but a misfit in societies in the current world. He lives in hyperspace/cyberspace/cloud/metaverse with the mentality of ST:TNG. He enjoys virtually visiting places in Google Maps Street View, watching AuroraMAX live feed, solving puzzles, cycling (mostly in Canada's Capital Region) in summer, and cross-country skiing and snowshoeing (mostly on Royal Ottawa Golf Course) in winter, as well as designing and building ice and snow structures for his kids. He makes his own red wine from grape juice, makes yogurt, and grows and harvests Ginkgo biloba seeds for sale on eBay.com/eBay.ca. Inspired by Soylent Green, he created hyper-nutritious Quinolent GREEN/ORANGE and eats them every day together with mega-dose of resveratrol-containing liquid. He envisions living in a dome house and eventually in space. In 1997, he underwent an Excimer Laser Eye Surgery (LASIK) to achieve 20/20 vision.

The Opportunity

The Product

The holographic projection device for displaying a 3-dimensional image has a cylindrical casing, diagonally-cut cylindrical mount, and a circular or elliptical reflection-type hologram in order to project an upright orthoscopic real image or a combination of real and virtual images having both horizontal and vertical parallaxes, perpendicularly to the horizon. The diagonally-placed hologram is illuminated by a point source of white light, preferably a high-efficiency light emitting diode, securely attached to means integrated into the holographic projection device. The holographic projection device comprises a sound chip for producing a voice or music effect.
The holographic projection device comprises 2 permanent magnets which act as a figurine-holding device. The 2 permanent magnets also act as a gravity-activated switch.
The novel product features a number of technological advancements in optics and magnetics in a portfolio of intellectual property.

The Market

The device will be marketed to consumers all over the world initially as a novelty and educational item. The projected cost is $25 CAD with a wholesale price of $30 CAD and a retail price of $60 CAD.
The first-year sales estimate is 25 000 units, growing to 100 000 units per year after 5 years. It is expected that the sales will eventually reach 1 million units. The product has potential to become a global megahit.
