Wide-viewing holographic stereogram based on self-interference incoherent digital holography

We propose a holographic stereogram synthesis method which uses holograms that are optically captured by self-interference incoherent digital holography (SIDH) based on a geometric phase lens. SIDH is a promising solution for hologram acquisition under low-coherence lighting condition. A mechanical scanning system is constructed to acquire multiple perspective holograms. Numerical simulations and experimental analyses conducted using high-resolution diffractive optical element demonstrate that the proposed method can produce a wide-viewing hologram which can realize realistic 3D scenarios with depth cues such as accommodation and motion parallax. The future objectives include the implementation of a multiple-camera system for holographic videos.
