Improving the quality of full-color holographic three-dimensional displays using depth elated multiple wavefront recording planes with uniform active areas

In this paper, a depth-related uniform multiple wavefront recording plane (UM-WRP) method is proposed for enhancing the image quality of point cloud-based holograms. Conventional multiple WRP methods, based on full-color computer-generated holograms, experience a color uniformity problem caused by intensity distributions. To solve this problem, the proposed method generates depth-related WRPs to enhance color uniformity, thereby accelerating hologram generation using a uniform active area. The aim is to calculate depth-related WRPs with designed active area sizes that then propagate to the hologram. Compared with conventional multiple WRP methods, reconstructed images have significantly improved quality, as confirmed by numerical simulations and optical experiments.
