Dressed in faded denim hotpants, a leopard-print bra, with a tattoo snaking up her stomach and across her chest, the 3D computer-generated image reaches out and appears to knock on the window to attract attention.
She leans forward, breathes on the glass and writes the word "help".
The hologram is designed to represent Bernadette "Betty" Szabo, a 19-year-old woman from Hungary who was murdered a few months after giving birth in 2009.
Her fatal stabbing has baffled police for 15 years. Dutch cold case detectives are using the innovative technology for the first time in an effort to solve the case.
