Abstract
In this paper, a fast hologram calculation method based on wavefront precise diffraction is proposed. By analyzing the diffraction characteristics of the object point on the 3D object, the effective viewing area of the reproduced image is analyzed. Based on the effective viewing area, the effective hologram size of the object point is obtained, and then the accurate diffraction calculation from the object point to the wavefront recording plane (WRP) is performed. By calculating all the object points on the recorded object, the optimized WRP of the whole 3D object can be obtained. The final hologram is obtained by calculating the diffraction light field from the WRP to the holographic plane. Compared with the traditional method, the proposed method can improve the calculation speed by more than 55%, while the image quality of the holographic 3D display is not affected. The proposed calculation method provides an idea for fast calculation of holograms and is expected to contribute to the development of dynamic holographic displays.
