Simplification of Holographic Procedures

Abstract

The present state of the holographic art has set many stringent parameters on the production of holograms, such as extreme mechanical, temperature, and air stability for long periods of time, and slow film emulsions with extremely high resolution. The Physical Sciences Laboratory of the U.S. Naval Training Device Center has investigated, experimented, and produced many clear high resolution holograms in a ground-level Butler Building without close temperature controls and using other than expensive, massive, and extremely rigid optical mounts and equipment.
