How 3D holograms work

  • Holograms are photographic recordings of 3D scenes. Unlike a camera, which captures one view through a small viewer focused by a lens, holograms capture an entire light field which allows them to recreate the 3D scene. Shimmery 2D projections, like pre-recorded Pepper’s ghost illusion, are often confused with 3D holograms.

    It is a very good introduction to the topic, though of course, a much longer video would be required to fully explain how the diffraction properties of waves ends up producing a 3D image that rotates in the correct way when we change angle we look at it from.

Thank you for a brief look into the creation of those images and if you don't know about the figures I am referring to, check them out, esp. the Visionaries line, some amazingly articulated 1980's nostalgia right there !!!

      First i's a nice prisetation thanks.
      To understand how we can see the entire image/picture in bouth in the entire hologram as-well as in eahc fragment of the hologram we must undrestant that a hologram is not a picture but an Optical phenominan/media and in this case work's like a window. Lets say if we cover at entire window whit a black sheet of paper with a hole in somewhere and if we take a look through this hole no matter where it is plased, we'll find that we'll see the whole room/landscape/image only our veawing angle is slithly deferint depending where the hole is plased in the paper, again as we remove the entire paper we'll naturaly still see the entire room/landscape/image.
      Erros:
      Erro in this prisentation: be aveair its chrutioul that both the reference and objeckt beam is coherent to make a inteferince pattern/hologram.
      Coretion: The deference is not about coherentce but the vawe-front/vawe-pattern. the referance wave pattern is regular where the opject pattern is destorted/formed by the shape of the opject theo still coherent whit the reference beam/pattern when they mede and form the inteference pattern on the film and are recorted.
      Thats why we carefuly messoure the lenghts of all our optical rails/trains when recort a hologram.
      Spelling Erros: Pardon my many lag of propper english spelling skills :-)

    Thank you so much for stating the fact that for holograms like this; for each division of the whole, that the whole is contained within each division.
    This fact is one of the rarest things demonstrable, about some very special things, such as a single member of a species still has all the information about that species.
    Or a single instance of an electron, still has all the properties of all electrons.
    Possibly there is such a relationship with many other intangible relationships that may or do exist all through the universe....and teaching about things like this really does inspire one to wonder about all the other types which exist in this, or similar beautiful ways.

    • @Lembdadelta
      @Lembdadelta 6 років тому

      Because the interference pattern on the holographic film spreads out the information on it with no correspondence to space. In other terms, if you take a single ray of light, its "presence" will alter the whole interference pattern, therefore each single piece of holographic film holds information about all the light rays reflected by the object.

You'd have to pass them out and tell everyone to look closely before they'd get it.

You can see all kinds of detail that just isn't there on a regular photograph: moisture on the eyes, light glinting off the hair on the skin. Of course there's no way to show this in a video, but it's pretty striking when you see them in person.

    What happens to the image if you change the frequency of the laser ever so slightly? (When viewing the hologram later, that is.)

    There's also Dr Nozman (French channel) who teach how to make a hologramm with just a CD box and a phone ! ;)

    Imagine making a holographic image to be used on a billboard.

    What if you took one of those old cameras that records separate film channels for each color, stuck some holographic film in there, and illuminated the subject with three lasers? The projector would be the camera in reverse. Then you have a full color hologram.

    If you had a filter that only let through one wavelength of light, could that work to take a hologram in broad daylight, as long as you know the wavelength for the filter? Or better, put the filter behind the holographic film so you can hold it in your hand!
