Acceleration of computer-generated holograms using tilted wavefront recording plane method.

Computer Generated Holograms (CGH) are generated on computers; however, a great deal of computational power is required because the quality of the image is proportional to the number of point light sources of a 3D object. The Wavefront Recording Plane (WRP) method is an algorithm that enables reduction of the amount of calculations required. However, the WRP method also has a defect; it is not effective in the case of a 3D object with a deep structure. In this study, we propose two improved WRP methods: "Least Square Tilted WRP method" and "RANSAC Multi-Tilted WRP method."
