Abstract

The edge-lit display format has been successfully applied to holographic stereograms. Taking advantage of the discrete nature of the information content of stereograms, the three-step production process of edge-lit rainbow holograms has been reduced to a two-step process for edge-lit holographic stereograms. Design improvements have been made to the edge-lit hologram's recording tank. The image distortion resulting from refraction as the object beam transits the air-tank interface in the final recording stage has been investigated and compensation techniques developed.
