Description
In this programme Dr. Keith Hodgkinson of the Open University examines the three dimensional images produced by holograms. The programme is chiefly concerned with the possibilities of holography a...s a medium for display and illustration. The programme begins with an experiment which shows the microscopic interference fringes of coherent light which form the basis of holography. At Loughborough University Dr. Hodgkinson looks at some remarkably high quality holograms and shows the lay-out for their recording. The last section of the programme examines holograms that can be viewed in ordinary white light (i.e. a light bulb) and a method for incorporating movement into holographic images.
