Abstract

New methods of calculating computer-generated true-color rainbow holograms (CGTCRH) are proposed. The main idea of the proposed work is based on the additive properties of holographic wave front reconstruction such that the result hologram is a superposition of three (or more) holograms, each of them produces different color reconstruction of the same object. These techniques allows obtaining the true- color object reconstruction. White light reconstruction results are discussed. A new method of calculating CGTCRH which are reconstructed by a white light point source is proposed. The presented CGTCRH are the analog of the well- known rainbow holograms, but proposed technique allows to obtain the true-color object reconstruction. White light and monochromatic light reconstruction results are discussed. New method of calculating computer-generated true-color rainbow holograms are proposed. These techniques allows obtaining the true-color object reconstruction. The main idea of the proposed work is based on the additive properties of holographic wave front reconstruction such that the result hologram is a superposition of three (or more) holograms, each of them produces different color reconstruction of the same object.
