  • Patent number: 12693629
    Abstract: Provided is a method of recording a digital holographic portrait photograph, which is performed by an apparatus for recording a digital holographic portrait photograph, the method including the steps of: (a) performing a preliminary test using a plurality of cameras arranged at a specific rotation angle; (b) determining a maximum allowable angle between the cameras through the preliminary test; (c) acquiring a plurality of images using the plurality of cameras arranged at the maximum allowable angle; and (d) interpolating the plurality of images to record a holographic portrait photograph.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 12468257
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for holographic recording based on holographic printing technology, and more specifically, to a method and apparatus for holographic recording, in which the hologram is recorded after the deviation in diffraction efficiency for each hogel is pre-compensated for by varying the intensity (luminance) of the object beam for each hogel during the hologram recording in response to a deviation in diffraction efficiency (reconstruction efficiency) for each hogel of a holographic recording surface that occurs when the hologram is reproduced. Accordingly, the reproduction imbalance of a near-eye display (NED) using a holographic optical element (HOE) is resolved by controlling the diffraction efficiency uniform on the entire holographic recording surface when the hologram is reproduced.

  • Patent number: 12405573
    Abstract: Provided are a webserver-based video content production system and method for printing a holographic stereogram photo. According to the webserver-based video content production system and method, an encoding process is performed on image data under a web environment to prevent data loss in a network communication process, and then the encoded image data is transmitted to a webserver. The webserver decodes the encoded image data and performs a second-half task (postprocessing) on the decoded image data using deep learning such that a high-quality hologram photo can be printed within a relatively short time without any unnecessary process.
