ABSTRACT:
A holographic imaging system is disclosed that includes a spectral electromagnetic field unit for providing a plurality of focal areas of a plurality of wavelengths of electromagnetic fields along a first direction, a lens system for directing the electromagnetic fields having the plurality of wavelengths from an object that may be positioned at least substantially near the plurality of focal areas toward a holographic recording, and a detector surface for receiving electromagnetic fields from the holographic recording.
