Abstract
This paper presents a novel method of multi-spatial light modulator
(SLM) holographic image display that enables wide angle reconstruction of
images of real world objects. The image data are delivered by means of digital
holography. The capture and display systems are arranged in a circular configuration.
In order to support the proper information flow between the multi-sensor capture
and multi-SLM display systems we perform analysis using the Wigner distribution
function. We also consider a mismatch of the capture and display configurations
as well as the visual perception of the displayed image. Experimental results
based on the reconstruction of real world scenes are presented that demonstrate
the validity of the theoretical solutions. A single camera is used to record
the digital holograms, where the object is rotated between captures, and these
holograms are then displayed on a circular configuration of SLMs. The results
show the limitation of multi-SLM holographic displays in terms of visual perception.
These problems arise from the limited angular distribution of the SLMs on
a display circle and the presence of gaps between the SLMs.
