  • Patent number: 8873119
    Abstract: A system and a method perform buoyance of a 3D hologram image on a hologram display screen in a projection mode. A system of displaying a digital hologram includes: a composite hologram unit configured to generate a hologram array by receiving hologram data of a fringe pattern and by compositing background image and a foreground image using the received fringe pattern; a hologram projection unit configured to project a hologram image through a wide-angle lens by applying a light to the hologram array; and a hologram display unit configured to perform space buoyance of the hologram image projected by the hologram projection unit on a 3D hologram display screen. The digital hologram content is managed in real time, and transmission of the digital hologram content to a remote place and site adaptive display of hologram image media may be achieved.

  • Publication number: 20140313555
    Abstract: Provided are a digital hologram synthesis method and apparatus based on an angular spectrum. The digital hologram synthesis method includes representing an input digital hologram as at least one angular spectrum region by applying Fourier transformation to the input digital hologram, registering the at least one angular spectrum region by projecting the at least one angular spectrum region onto a spherical surface, and generating a synthesis digital hologram based on the registered at least one angular spectrum region. Accordingly, it is possible to generate a new digital hologram with a different orientation or at a different distance using an angular spectrum of a digital hologram generated in advance, without geometric information of an object. In addition, it is possible to readily and intuitively synthesize a new digital hologram while viewing an image visualized in a 3D space.

  • Publication number: 20140085692
    Abstract: A hologram data processing method using a hologram fringe data format adaptive to a data encoding scheme includes configuring model data of a three-dimensional (3D) object corresponding to source data to be used for generating a hologram, computing hologram fringe data by applying a diffraction transform to a light wave transferred to a hologram plane based on the model data of the 3D object, setting, in the computed hologram fringe data, the hologram fringe data format adaptive to a data encoding scheme for reconstructing the hologram, reconstructing an optical hologram by applying the data encoding scheme to the hologram fringe data, and adjusting the optical hologram by comparing a reconstructed image of the optical hologram to a reconstructed image of a numerical hologram.

  • Publication number: 20130155502
    Abstract: There are provided an autostereoscopic 3-Dimensional (3D) display apparatus and a display method thereof. In the autostereoscopic 3D display apparatus, a 3D display is disposed in a standing position, and a reflection structure reflects light emitted from the screen of the 3D display to provide a 3D image in a 3D space. Accordingly, a deflection of the 3D display is reduced so that a 3D image pattern having no distortion is formed.
