Abstract

We demonstrate implementation and performance of microdisplay systems based on liquid-crystal technology in a variety of applications in holographic mastering. These displays can encode 2D objects information in grey scale or address holographic patterns in amplitude or phase. The main advantage is here to address any content dynamically with typically 60 Hz. Furthermore they show a resolution up to 1920×1200 pixels with a pixel size as small as 6.4 microns. Therefore they are extremely suitable for a dynamic or multi-exposure mastering process, to incorporate image content, phase-encode objects or any holographic features. This technology is already being used in holographic security applications as well as in commercial and display holography. We report about a few applications/implementations and show experimental results and performance parameters.
