Holographic android is, as I understand it, a robot in humanoid shape, capable of disguising itself as a real human/humanoid being via built-in holographic projectors.
I assume the concept of holographic android first appeared in the books, as it's always been in sci-fi.
So far I've encountered only two depictions of the subject, both from other media:
- Anime - Combat android from anime short 'Deprive' from the anthology 'Robot Carnival' (1987)
- Videogames - PROXY holodroid from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (2008)
My question is, what was the first sci-fi work (most likely, in the form of literature) that featured holographic android? Who was the author and how was that android depicted?
