Yes, they would be high-quality ... truely three-dimensional holograms. Not the foil-type with flat imagery or Motion-Pix imagery, but real holograms.

Just as a means of comparison. To create a fully-custom security image ... like a little 2d-multiplanar embossed hologram like you see on your credit card, is anywhere from $2500 to $10,000 just for the setup/origination.

Other technologiues, like polymer are normally in the $2500 to $5000 (and are better holograms) for setup, but the per piece cost is much higher than embossed.

Another example ... MotionPix, which we also do, which aren't even holograms -- they're just 4-color prints with a special lens -- normally cost $750 for the setup alone, and you can't get one-off's. 2500 pieces is the minimum.

Hope that shed's some light.

Best,
Tim
