We describe the latest improvements in holographic interferometry that enable the real-time measurement of vibrational modes and static deformations in surfaces using low-power laser illumination and a photorefractive Bi_12 TiO_20 crystal as the recording medium. An efficient setup has been developed where the most critical elements have been optimized: target illumination and backscattered light collection, distribution of light between the object and reference beams, and stabilization system operation. Experimental results for vibration and deformation measurement are reported.
