    摘要: A method for encoding complex-valued signals of a computer-generated hologram into a phase-modulating optical element for the reconstruction of a three-dimensional object, and to a computer program product for encoding complex-valued signals of a computer-generated hologram, and to a holographic display for the reconstruction of a three-dimensional object. The object is to reduce the effort on encoding a complex-valued spatial distribution by an iteration method on the basis of phase encoding, so that the computer-generated hologram resulting therefrom can be represented more rapidly and with the same or an improved reconstruction quality. In particular, the convergence during the iterative optimization is intended to be accelerated. This is achieved by a method in which degrees of freedom of the hologram plane as well as the reconstruction plane are used for optimizing the iteration method for rapid convergence and maximization of the diffraction efficiency in the signal range.

    摘要: A method of computing a hologram by determining the wavefronts at the approximate observer eye position that would be generated by a real version of an object to be reconstructed. In normal computer generated holograms, one determines the wavefronts needed to reconstruct an object; this is not done directly in the present invention. Instead, one determines the wavefronts at an observer window that would be generated by a real object located at the same position of the reconstructed object. One can then back-transforms these wavefronts to the hologram to determine how the hologram needs to be encoded to generate these wavefronts. A suitably encoded hologram can then generate a reconstruction of the three-dimensional scene that can be observed by placing one's eyes at the plane of the observer window and looking through the observer window.

    摘要: A holographic projector includes a spatial light modulator, a light receiving member and a driver. The spatial light modulator is arranged to receive and represent a computer-generated hologram and spatially modulate light incident on the spatial light modulator to form a holographic reconstruction in accordance with the computer-generated hologram. The light receiving member is arranged to receive spatially modulated light along an optical axis from the spatial light modulator and the holographic reconstruction is formed on the light receiving member. The driver is coupled to the light receiving member to move the light receiving member in a plane. The driver is configured to move the light receiving member while maintaining an orientation of the light receiving member relative to the spatial light modulator substantially constant.
