WHAT IS HOLOGRAPHY ? [1]

Holography (Greek word : Whole + Write) is the science and practice of
making holograms.
A Hologram is a photographic recording of a light field, rather than of an
image formed by a lens.
It can display a fully three-dimensional image of the subject , which can be
see without the aid of special glasses or other intermediate optics.

We can say , it is an advanced form of photography that allows an image to be

recorded or displayed in three-dimension.

HISTORY [1]
Dennis Gabor (aka. Father of Holography and Holographic
Technology) was British electrical engineer and physicist,
most notable for inventing holography, for which he later
received the 1971 Nobel Prize in Physics.
Dennis wrote papers in 1948 that has become foundation
of modern holography.
The most interesting thing about all this is the laser light
had not even been invented yet , when he wrote papers.

(5 June 1900 9 February 1979)

HOW HOLOGRAMS WORKS ? [2]

The time-varying light field of a
scene with all physical properties is
to be recorded and then
regenerated.
Hence the working of holograms is
divided into two phases :
1. Recording
2. Reconstruction

1. RECORDING OF HOLOGRAMS[2]
Basic tool required to make a
hologram includes Lasers , Lenses ,
Beam-splitters , Mirrors and
Holographic film.

NOTE : Holograms are recorded in

darker environments.

 Laser : Red lasers, usually helium-neon (He-Ne) lasers, are common in

holography. These are coherent light source.
Beam splitter: This is a device that uses mirrors and prisms to split laser beam
of light into two beams.

1. Object beam (directed onto the object)

2. Reference beam (travels directly onto the recording medium)
Mirrors: These direct the beams of light to the correct locations
Holographic lm: Holographic film can record light at a very high resolution,
which is necessary to creating a hologram. It's a layer of light-sensitive
compounds on a transparent surface, like photographic film.

E.g. : Silver Halide Emulsion

2. RECONSTRUCTION OF HOLOGRAMS[2]

The photographic plate is

illuminated with original light source
used for recording holograms

TYPES OF HOLOGRAMS[3]
1. Reex Hologram
Reex hologram Illuminated by a spot of white incandescent light source, from
front-above
The image consists of light reected by The hologrom
Produces multicolor holograms, makes images Optically indistinguishable from The
original object.

2. Transmission Hologram
Viewed with laser light, usually of The same type used to make The recording
Need light source behind them

2. Computer-generated Hologram
No need of real object
Interference pattern is calculated digitally , using various algorithms.

HOLOGRAPHIC DISPLAY THE FUTURE

A high resolution three dimensional view
of an object.
Glass free 3D display with horizontal 360
on top table view.
No need of projection screen
Life like images.

Interactive display with user interfacing.

HOLOGRAM PROPERTIES[3]

If you look at this holograms from different angles , you see objects from
different perspectives , just like you would if you were looking at a real
objects.

They usually just look like sparkly pictures or smears of color.

If you cut one in half , each half contains whole views of the entire
holographic image.

ADVANTAGES OF HOLOGRAM [6]

It's cost effective

It's difficult to replicate
Easily applied on products
It's difficult to alter or transpose

It's verifiable by its specific manufacture

DISADVANTAGES OF HOLOGRAM [6]

Production cost is much higher that 2D
Not easily see under Florescent Lighting
Requires above lighting

Application to products is costly

Time consuming when it comes to constructing images
