Abstract

A hologram is a three-dimensional image created by a laser beam. It is produced by using technology such as 3D scanners, cameras, and computer-generated models. Holographic technology has the potential to revolutionise the way court proceedings are conducted in Malaysia by making it easier for witnesses and victims to provide testimony and for lawyers to present cases more vividly and engagingly. Judges could also be represented as artificial creations without the presence of an actual judge in a courtroom whose image is beamed to a mobile phone or any other device. This research aims to analyse the existing legal provisions that permit the utilisation of remote communication technology for court proceedings and examine the adequacy of the statutory provisions to enable the use of holograms in a virtual court setting in Malaysia. The paper highlights the key judicial reforms that have been undertaken by the Malaysian judiciary through the use of technology. However, the paper concludes by arguing that initiatives and efforts must continue to be implemented from- time to time to enhance the efficiency of the Judiciary at all levels and to improve the delivery system.
