Electronic holography generated from integral photography

Abstract

In this paper, we describe an electronic holography for non-coherent lighting environment. We used and integral photography (IP) to obtain 3D information of the scene. This method demands neither laser beams nor a darkroom at the recording. Therefore living or moving objects may be captured onto a hologram. The converter hardware calculates fringe patterns according to the IP at 30 frames per second by using our former proposed conversion algorithm. In our experiment, 3840x2160 pixels of color holograms are generated in real-time.
