摘要:
A method for generating video holograms for a holographic reproduction device with at least one light modulation means, wherein a scene split into object points is encoded as a whole hologram and can be seen as a reconstruction from a visibility region, which is located within a periodicity interval of the reconstruction of the video hologram. The visibility region, together with each object point of the scene to be reconstructed, defines a subhologram and the whole hologram is generated from a superposition of subholograms, wherein in a sequence of image contents the difference subholograms of object points are preferably generated for each picture, differing in regards to the visibility according to the viewer position in sequential images of the sequence. The display device comprises means that provide high-quality video holograms in spite of the data amount being significantly reduced.

Holographic display device comprising a first EASLM and a second EASLM, the pair permitting independent modification of phase and amplitude, in which holographic reconstruction is visible through one or more virtual observer windows. An advantage is that an observer may view a holographic reconstruction through one or more virtual observer windows from a device housing a pair of EASLMs which permit independent modification of phase and amplitude.

The invention relates to an optical reflection system with a reflection element for reflecting reconstruction light waves, an entry-side focal point, from which the reconstruction light waves come when they hit the reflection element, and an exit-side focal point, to which the reconstruction light waves propagate after being reflected from the reflection element. The invention further relates to a tracking system and a holographic projection system with such optical reflection system, and a corresponding holographic projection method. In order to achieve with such an optical reflection system an aberration correction and a tracking of the visibility region and a reconstruction larger than with prior art devices, the optical reflection system according to this invention comprises a deflection element with optically controllable deflection properties and a deflection control means for optically controlling the deflection properties of the deflection element which controls the position of at least the exit-side focal point of the optical reflection system.

The data defining an object to be holographically reconstructed is first arranged into a number of virtual section layers, each layer defining a two-dimensional object data sets, such that a video hologram data set can be calculated from some or all of these two-dimensional object data sets. The first step is to transform each two-dimensional object data set to a two-dimensional wave field distribution. This wave field distribution is calculated for a virtual observer window in a reference layer at a finite distance from the video hologram layer. Next, the calculated two-dimensional wave field distributions for the virtual observer window, for all two-dimensional object data sets of section layers, are added to define an aggregated observer window data set. Then, the aggregated observer window data set is transformed from the reference layer to the video hologram layer, to generate the video hologram data set for the computer-generated video hologram.

A geometrical method for working out how to encode a hologram onto a hologram bearing medium is disclosed. The method involves (a) selecting a point on the three dimensional scene to be reconstructed; then (b) defining a virtual observer window through which the reconstructed three dimensional scene will be seen; then (c) tracing a pyramid from the edges of the observer window through the point and onto a region that forms only a portion of a hologram bearing medium; and finally (d) generating, solely in that region of the hologram-bearing medium, holographic information needed to generate a holographic reconstruction of the point.

The invention relates to video holograms and devices for reconstructing video holograms, comprising an optical system that consists of a light source, lens and the video hologram that is composed of cells arranged in a matrix or a regular pattern with at least one opening per cell, the phase or amplitude of said opening being controllable. The video holograms and devices for reconstructing the same are characterized in that holographic video representations of expanded spatial objects can be achieved in a wide viewing area in real time using controllable displays, whereby the objects are either computer-generated or created by different means. The space-bandwidth product (SBP) of the hologram is thus reduced to a minimum and the periodicity interval of the Fourier spectrum is used as a viewing window on the inverse transformation plane, through which the object is visible in the preceding space. The mobility of the viewer(s) is achieved by tracking the viewing window. The invention can be advantageously used in the television, multimedia, games and construction fields, in military and medical technology, in addition to other economic and social areas.

A holographic reconstruction system having spatial light modulators, an eye finder and a position control orients a propagating spatially modulated light wave field toward at least one eye position of an observer's eye, thereby reconstructing a scene in a three-dimensional manner and tracking the same during a position change of the eye position. Through Unobstructed lateral and axial movement of the observer head to arbitrary eye positions in a tracking region is enabled. The use of additional, planar optical components, which bring about optical aberrations during a position change of observer eyes, are prevented.
摘要:
A method and a device for encoding and reconstructing computer-generated video holograms using a conventional LC display: it provides holographic reconstruction of three-dimensional scenes using electronically controllable pixel in a holographic array (3) with a conventional resolution, and is reasonably free from flickering and cross-talk. Reconstruction is in real time, and for both eyes at the same time, over a large viewing zone. The method takes advantage of an optical focusing means (2) in order to image vertically coherent light emitted by a line light source (1) into viewing windows (8R, 8L) after modulation by the pixel array (3). The holographic reconstruction (11) of the scene is rendered visible from viewing windows (8R, 8L) for both eyes of an observer by way of diffraction at the pixels. According to the invention, the controllable pixels are disposed in vertical pixel columns (15, 16), which encode separate holograms of the same scene for each of the viewer's eyes (R, L), where said holograms are one-dimensional in the vertical direction and horizontally interleaved. An image separation means (7) with separating elements arranged parallel to the pixel columns reveals the respective pixel columns (15, 15′ or 16, 16′) for one eye and covers them for the other eye.

The invention relates to an autostereoscopic multi-user display comprising a focussing element and a selectable display for the time-sequential representation of 2D and/or 3D images. When viewed in the direction of the observer, said display contains a sweet-spot unit and an image matrix, which function separately from one another. The sweet-spot unit focuses a light distribution with a large surface area onto the eyes of the observer by means of a lateral sweet-spot extension, which is greater than or equal to the distance between the eyes of the observer. The sweet-spot bundle traverses the imaging matrix completely in a uniform manner on its way to the observer(s) and is thus modulated by the image content of the image matrix. The size of the sweet spot reduces the need for tracking precision. The sweet-spot unit consists of an illumination and imaging matrix. The illumination matrix is situated approximately in the front focal distance of the imaging matrix and can consist of backlight and an electronic shutter with controllable apertures or can be another suitable component. According to one embodiment, the shutter and the image matrix are identical in their pixel and sub-pixel geometry. The imaging matrix can be a double-lenticular, holographic optical element or similar.
