Abstract
The principle of optical scanning holography (OSH) is proposed to acquire horizontal-parallax-only (HPO) holographic information electronically. We first briefly summarize the results of OSH and then discuss how HPO-electronic holographic information can be acquired using OSH. Finally we provide simulations to illustrate and clarify the proposed idea. Although many ideas of HPO-holography have been proposed and studied, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first proposed electronic technique to acquire HPO-holographic information.
Highlights
It is well-known that holograms contain enormous information and transmission of holograms for eventual 3-D display is one of the formidable problems of evolving areas of high technology that has been receiving greater attention in recent years [1,2,3,4,5,6]
Electronic holography is an electronic processing technique that is used in the context of optical holography to bypass the use of films for recording [10]

Summary
It is well-known that holograms contain enormous information and transmission of holograms for eventual 3-D display is one of the formidable problems of evolving areas of high technology that has been receiving greater attention in recent years [1,2,3,4,5,6]. Holographic information reduction techniques help to alleviate the problems associated with the restricted field of view upon holographic reconstruction for 3-D display. Received February 2005; revised March 2005; accepted 17 March 2005 4 April 2005 / Vol 13, No 7 / OPTICS EXPRESS 2427 holographic information and many holographic systems have been proposed and studied [79]. To the best of our knowledge, there has not been a single electronic holographic recording technique being investigated regarding the HPO-approach. We investigate HPO-electronic holography using optical scanning holography (OSH). Optical scanning holography is a real-time holographic recording technique in which holographic recording of 3-D objects is achieved by a single 2-D laser scanning [11]. The novelty of the technique lies in the fact that holographic information of 3-D objects is done on-the-fly by laser scanning
