## HoloFX: Bringing Sci-Fi Holograms to Life


> ## Overview
#### Welcome to HoloFX! 🎉✨
This project explores the creation of mesmerizing holographic materials often seen in sci-fi movies like Star Wars. We use Three.js and GLSL Shaders to render three iconic shapes: a sphere, a torus knot, and Suzanne the monkey. The holographic effect is achieved primarily through fragment shaders, with a vertex shader glitch effect adding dynamic waves to the vertices.

#### In this project, we're crafting three iconic shapes:
🌐 Sphere
🔗 Torus Knot
🐵 Suzanne the Monkey
These shapes will be transformed into stunning holographic objects with a mix of fragment and vertex shaders. The fragment shader will handle most of the holographic effects, while the vertex shader will introduce a glitch effect, making the vertices wave and move in a dynamic, unpredictable manner.

### The Challenge
Creating realistic and interactive holographic effects involves several challenges:
- Achieving the right visual variation based on the angle between the face and the camera (Fresnel effect).
- Adding dynamic vertex glitches to simulate a hologram’s instability.
- Balancing visual aesthetics with real-time rendering performance.

### The Solution
🛠️ By leveraging Three.js and GLSL Shaders, we developed a series of shaders to create holographic effects. The fragment shader handles most of the visual effects, while the vertex shader adds a glitchy, wave-like distortion to the vertices. The Fresnel effect is crucial in giving the holograms their characteristic glow and depth.
