The synthetic holographic stereogram printing technique can achieve a three-dimensional (3D) display of a scene. The development and research status of the synthetic holographic stereogram printing technique is introduced in this paper. We propose a two-step method, an infinite viewpoint camera method, a single-step Lippmann method, a direct-write digital holography (DWDH) method and an effective perspective images’ segmentation and mosaicking (EPISM) method. The synthetic holographic stereogram printing technique is described, including the holographic display with large format, the large field of view with no distortion, the printing efficiency, the color reproduction characteristics, the imaging quality, the diffraction efficiency, the development of a holographic recording medium, the noise reduction, and the frequency response analysis of holographic stereograms.
With the principle of ray-tracing and the reversibility of light propagation, a new method of single-step full parallax synthetic holographic stereogram printing based on effective perspective images’ segmentation and mosaicking (EPISM) is proposed. The perspective images of the scene are first sampled by a virtual camera and the exposing images, which are called synthetic effective perspective images, are achieved using the algorithm of effective perspective images’ segmentation and mosaicking according to the propagation law of light and the viewing frustum effect of human eyes. The hogels are exposed using the synthetic effective perspective images in sequence to form the whole holographic stereogram. The influence of modeling parameters on the reconstructed images are also analyzed, and experimental results have demonstrated that the full parallax holographic stereogram printing with the proposed method could provide good reconstructed images by single-step printing. Moreover, detailed experiments with different holographic element sizes, different scene reconstructed distances, and different imaging planes are also analyzed and implemented.
Integral imaging is an emerging three-dimensional display technology. However, some inherent issues such as depth inversion has restricted its development. As such, this paper proposes a pixel fusion technique to generate elemental image arrays and overcome pseudoscopic problems occurring in sparse imaging environments. The similarity between the aimed displayed rays and the two adjacent captured rays of an object in a parallel light field was measured by the ratio of the spatial distance of the displayed and captured rays to the interval of the adjacent captured light. Displayed pixel values were acquired for the parallel captured rays. Corresponding pixel position errors were determined in sparse capture conditions and the method was further improved by using the position errors to identify the correct pixel, resulting in higher image quality. The proposed technique does not require manual adjustment of reference planes or other parameters, even at low capturing densities. This provides added convenience and may reduce capturing costs in actual scenes. Experiments using two bricks in virtual scenes under 9 × 9 to 137 × 137 capture cameras were conducted, and the quality of the generated elemental image array was compared with smart pseudoscopic-to-orthoscopic conversion (SPOC). The peak signal-to-noize ratio (PSNR) and structural similarity (SSIM) values showed the effectiveness of the proposed technique. The optical reconstruction results from both real and virtual scenes demonstrated improvements in vision of reconstructed three-dimensional scenes.
