Abstract

Computer-generated holograms are often optimized by techniques such as error diffusion, projections onto constraint sets (POCS), and direct binary search. Earlier, we introduced a new method based on interlacing a number of subholograms,¹ each subhologram is optimized by a well-known algorithm, such as the POCS, to correct the remaining reconstruction error. The resulting technique is fast, has excellent error performance, and has the potential to reduce local minima problems.
