Michelson Holography: Dual-SLM Holography with Camera-in-the-loop Optimization

Suyeon Choi, Jonghyun Kim, Yifan Peng, Gordon Wetzstein

Abstract: We introduce Michelson Holography (MH), a holographic display technology that optimizes image quality for emerging holographic near-eye displays. Using two spatial light modulators, MH is capable of leveraging destructive interference to optically cancel out undiffracted light corrupting the observed image. We calibrate this system using emerging camera-in-the-loop holography techniques and demonstrate state-of-the-art holographic 2D image quality.
