Ultra-high resolution holograms are now finding commercial and industrial applications in such areas as holographic maps, 3D medical imaging, and consumer devices. This handbook provides complete coverage of real-time colour holographic processes and applications. In addition to discussing the optics and theory behind these holographic systems, "[This] work is marked by a mature and balanced relationship and density, specifically as regards [to] mathematical relationships of description on the one hand, and physical interpretation on the other, as well as methods, implementation arrangements, applications, and full (holographic) images. And all this in an outstanding aesthetic presentation, printed in vivid color ?"-Contemporary Physics, 2014"Produced to the highest quality, with excellent illustrations throughout ? this book will no doubt become the standard reference work on the subject. ? an outstanding contribution to holographic literature. ? it deserves a permanent place on the shelves of every optics department."-Graham Saxby, RPS Journal, April 2014 "It is written in a very accessible style, with clear exposition of all the main results. Also worthy of note is the collection of over 500 photographs, diagrams and schematics relating to the recording and production of ultra-realistic holographic images."-Optics & Photonics News, 2014"This book is a condensation at the highest level of the authors' collective knowledge and experience in the area of display holography that includes history, theory, practice, and detailed designs of industrial systems. It includes over 500 photographs, diagrams, and design schematics for the recording and production of ultrarealistic holographic images."-From the Foreword by Professor Tung H.
