This seminar examines the new technology of Holographic Projections. It highlights the importance and need of this technology and how it represents the new wave in the future of technology and communications, the different application of the technology, the fields of life it will dramatically affect including business, education, telecommunication and healthcare. The paper also discusses the future of holographic technology and how it will prevail in the coming years highlighting how it will also affect and reshape many other fields of life, technologies and businesses. Holography is a diffraction-based coherent imaging technique in which a complex three-dimensional object can be reproduced from a flat, two-dimensional screen with a complex transparency representing amp litude and phase values. It is commonly agreed that real-time holography is the ne plus ultra art and science of visualizing fast temporally changing 3-D scenes. The integration of the real-time or electro-holographic principle into display technology is o ne of the most promising but also challenging developments for the future consumer display and TV market. Only holography allows the reconstruction of natural-looking 3-D scenes, and therefore provides observers with a completely comfortable viewing experience. But to date several challenges have prevented the technology from becoming commercialized. But those obstacles are now starting to be overcome. Recently, we have developed a novel approach to real-time display holography by combining an overlapping sub-hologram technique with a tracked viewing-window technology.

3. What is holography
3
 Holography
is a technique that allows the light
scattered from an object to be recorded and later
reconstructed.
 The
technique to optically store, retrieve, and process
information.
 Preserve

A. Reflex
hologram
 Illuminated
by a spot of
white incandescent light
source, from front-above
 The
image consists of light
reflected by the hologram
 Produces
multicolour
holograms, makes images
optically indistinguishable
from the original objects

B. Transmission hologram
 Viewed with laser light, usually
of the same type used to
make the recording
 Need light source behind them
 Virtual image can be very
sharp and deep
C.Computer-generated holograms
 No need for a real object
 Interference

8. How
holograms
work
College of Engineering Munnar
8
The time-varying light field
of a scene with all its physical
properties is to be recorded
and then regenerated.
 Hence the working of
holography is divided into
two phases:
•Recording
•Reconstruction

11. 11
• Laser : Red lasers, usually helium-neon (HeNe) lasers, are
common in holography. These are coherent light source.
• Beam splitter: This is a device that uses mirrors and prisms to
split laser beam of light into two beams.
 Object beam (directed onto the object) and
 Reference beam (travels directly onto the recording
medium)
College of Engineering Munnar

12. 12
• Mirrors: These direct the beams of light to the correct
locations
• Holographic film: Holographic film can record light at
a very high resolution, which is necessary for creating
a hologram. It's a layer of light-sensitive compounds
on a transparent surface, like photographic film.
Eg: Silver Halide Emulsion

13. Process

13
When the two laser beams reach the recording
medium, their light waves intersect and interfere with
each other. It is this interference pattern that is
imprinted on the recording medium.
