ABSTRACT:
In a video hologram that enables a three dimensional scene to be reconstructed, a specific region in the hologram encodes information for a particular, single point in the reconstructed scene. This region is the only region in the hologram encoded with information for that point, and is restricted in size to form a portion of the entire hologram, the size being such that multiple reconstructions of that point caused by higher diffraction orders are not visible at the defined viewing position. This contrasts with conventional holograms, in which the information needed to reconstruct a given point is distributed across the entire hologram.
