Abstract

Coded aperture correlation holography (COACH) combines incoherent digital holography with coded aperture imaging. COACH is also a method to record incoherent digital holograms of three-dimensional object scenes. Still, COACH can be used for several other incoherent and coherent optical applications. In this chapter, we survey the prime landmarks on the topic of COACH from two major perspectives: architectures and applications of the various systems. We explore the main configurations of hologram recorders in the COACH systems. For each design, we describe some of the recent implementations of these recorders in optical imaging. We conclude the chapter with general ideas on this technology.
