Abstract:
Provided are a digital hologram synthesis method and apparatus based on an angular spectrum. The digital hologram synthesis method includes representing an input digital hologram as at least one angular spectrum region by applying Fourier transformation to the input digital hologram, registering the at least one angular spectrum region by projecting the at least one angular spectrum region onto a spherical surface, and generating a synthesis digital hologram based on the registered at least one angular spectrum region. Accordingly, it is possible to generate a new digital hologram with a different orientation or at a different distance using an angular spectrum of a digital hologram generated in advance, without geometric information of an object. In addition, it is possible to readily and intuitively synthesize a new digital hologram while viewing an image visualized in a 3D space.
Abstract:
A hologram data processing method using a hologram fringe data format adaptive to a data encoding scheme includes configuring model data of a three-dimensional (3D) object corresponding to source data to be used for generating a hologram, computing hologram fringe data by applying a diffraction transform to a light wave transferred to a hologram plane based on the model data of the 3D object, setting, in the computed hologram fringe data, the hologram fringe data format adaptive to a data encoding scheme for reconstructing the hologram, reconstructing an optical hologram by applying the data encoding scheme to the hologram fringe data, and adjusting the optical hologram by comparing a reconstructed image of the optical hologram to a reconstructed image of a numerical hologram.
