Accelerated generation of holograms with ultra-low memory symmetrically high-compressed look-up table

Abstract

Computer-generated holography technology has been widely applied, and as research in this field deepens, the demand for memory and computational power in small AR and VR devices continues to increase. This paper presents a hologram generation method, i.e., a symmetrically high-compressed look-up table method, which can reduce memory usage by 50%. In offline computing, half of the basic horizontal and vertical modulation factors are stored, halving the memory requirements without affecting inline speed. Currently, its potential extends to various holographic applications, including the production of optical diffraction elements.
