Abstract

A method for recording and evaluating digital image-plane holograms is presented. Hundreds of holograms of an object that has been subjected to dynamic deformation (e.g., vibrations) are recorded. The phase of the wave front is calculated from the recorded holograms by use of a two-dimensional digital Fourier-transform method. By temporal phase unwrapping it is possible to determine the absolute deformation (included the direction of motion) of the object. Experimental results are presented, and the advantages of temporal phase unwrapping compared with spatial phase unwrapping are discussed.
