Abstract
Holograms can reconstruct the light wave field of three-dimensional objects. However, the computer-generated hologram (CGH) requires much calculating time. Here we proposed a CGH generation algorithm based on backward ray tracing and multiple off-axis wavefront recording planes (MO-WRP) to generate photorealistic CGH with a large reconstruction image. In this method, multiple WRPs were placed parallelly between the virtual object and the hologram plane. Virtual rays were emitted from the pixel of WRPs and intersect with the object. The complex amplitude of WRPs is then determined by illumination module, such as Phong reflection module. The CGH was generated by the shifted Angular Spectrum Propagation (ASP) from WRPs to the hologram plane. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of this method, and the CGH generation rate is 37.3 frames per second (1 WRP) and 9.8 frames per second (2×2 WRPs).
