There's actually a VI interface in almost everything, from your omnitool to your biotic implant to your assault rifle. The rogue VI on the moon didn't have a projection because it was designed for organising drones for combat simulations, not for directing people to the nearest bar or restaurant.
** EDI in the second game inverts this in that she projects herself as a sphere of blue lights, but is a genuine self-aware AI.
** Glyph similarly manifests as a blue sphere, although in his case he is a drone equipped as a sort of administrative assistant VI.
** Holographic projections are also commonly used for long distance communication, at least for folks important enough to make direct calls to Commander Shepard, a list that is generally limited to leaders or representatives of powerful organizations.
** In the third game, it is possible to encounter a VI with a [[{{Flanderization}} very Flanderized]] version of Commander Shepard's personality, which projects itself as a hard-light projection of Shepard. Depending on if Shepard is a Paragon or a Renegade, the VI will either be obnoxiously supportive or comically bloodthirsty. Cue DoIReallySoundLikeThat from Shepard.

* In ''Anime/TransformersRobotsInDisguise'', T-AI is a sentient computer who projects a holographic image of herself. She even operates equally holographic keypads to make the computer (which is ''her'') do stuff. [[Wiki/TFWikiDotNet Transformers Wiki]] summed up the FridgeLogic of this. [[note]]"Whenever T-AI makes radio contact with any off-base Autobots, she initiates it by pressing a sequence of buttons on a keypad. Considering that these elements are all a part of the same computer, T-AI is in fact projecting and controlling the holographic representation of herself and making it use the keypad that controls T-AI, herself. She is effectively telling herself to tell herself what to do. If you also factor in the fact that the hologram is totally incorporeal, and therefore cannot actually make contact with the keypad, then the assorted beeps and lights that seemingly indicate when the buttons are being pressed are actually being controlled from within T-AI like a player piano, and therefore don't need to be pressed even if the hologram could press them. This gives me a headache."[[/note]]The RuleOfCool is definitely in effect.
* Sixshot in ''Anime/TransformersHeadmasters'' projects copies of himself to fight; they're made of HardLight. Prowl in ''TransformersAnimated'' seems to have picked up a similar trick, but without the hardness (and a crimefighter in the comic named "Wraith" is able to project a moving hologram of himself that he controls from a nearby truck).
