FIELD OF VIEW EXPANSION FOR 3-D HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY USING A SINGLE SPATIAL LIGHT MODULATOR WITH SCANNING RECONSTRUCTION LIGHT

摘要

Increasing the field of view of a holographic display while maintaining adequate image size is a difficult task. To address this problem, we designed a system that tessellates several sub-holograms into one large hologram at the output. The sub-holograms we generate is similar to a kinoform but without the paraxial approximation during computation. The sub-holograms are loaded onto a single spatial light modulator consecutively and relayed to the appropriate position at the output through a combination of optics and scanning reconstruction light. We will review the method of computer generated hologram and describe the working principles of our system. Results from our proof-of-concept system are shown to have an improved field of view and reconstructed image size.
