We propose and demonstrate a method to generate and detect high-order Poincaré sphere beams. By adjusting the input homogeneous polarization states, arbitrary high-order Poincaré sphere beams are obtained. A one-to-one correspondence between the traditional Poincaré sphere beams and high-order Poincaré sphere beams is represented. The generation and detection of the high-order Poincaré sphere beams are realized simultaneously. Our research is helpful to deepen the understanding of the polarization states of light beams and provide useful ideas for the handling of optical experiments.
