I admit I didn't pay that much attention to it when I first saw it, due to the Obama euphoria but later on thinking about it, I reaslised I don't really know what a hologram is. I know I however saw a lady being "beamed" from somewhere else into the CNN anchor. How the heaven does that work?

It is a company in Norway who has developed this hologram for CNN. The company is called Vizrt and has been working with CNN for several years. With the exception of NBC, all the major US TV stations used graphics from Vizrt.
