Abstract

The current limitation in pixel count of a single spatial light modulator SLM is one of the technological hurdles that must be over- come to produce a holographic 3-D display with a large image size. A conventional approach is to tile subholograms that are predivided from a reconfigurable computer-generated hologram CGH with a high pixel count. We develop a new approach to achieve a 50 Mpixel display by tiling reconstructed subholograms computed from a predivided 3-D ob- ject. The tiling is done using a two-axis scanning mirror device with a new tiling sequence. A shutterless system design is also implemented to enable effective tiling of subholograms. A high-speed digital micromirror device DMD at 6 kHz with 19201080 pixels is utilized to reconstruct the subholograms. Our current system shows the potential to tile up to 120 subholograms, which corresponds to about 240 Mpixels. The ap- proach we demonstrate gives a scalable solution to achieve a gigapixel- level display in the future. © 2010 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation
