Abstract

We discuss a projection system for real world three-dimensional objects using spatial light modulators (SLM). An algorithm to encode the digital holograms of real world objects on to an SLM is presented. We present results from experiments to project holograms of real world holograms using a nematic liquid crystal SLM. We discuss the case when the pixel sizes of the charge-coupled device (CCD) and SLM used for recording the hologram and projection are different.

Keywords: Spatial light modulators, Liquid crystal displays, Three-dimensional displays, Holography.
