Accelerated algorithm for three-dimensional computer generated hologram based on the ray-tracing method

摘要

An accelerated algorithm for three-dimensional computer generated holograms (CGHs) based on the ray-tracing method is proposed. The complex amplitude distribution from the center point of an object is calculated in advance and the field distributions of rest points on the hologram plane can be given by doing a small translation and an aberration to the pre-calculated field. A static two-dimensional car, a three-dimensional teapot, and a dynamic three-dimensional rotating teapot are reconstructed from CGHs calculated with the accelerated algorithm to prove its validity. The simulation results demonstrate that the accelerated algorithm is eight times faster than the conventional ray-tracing algorithm.
