An algorithm for computing spot-generating holograms

This paper describes a computationally efficient algorithm suitable for designing spot-generating holograms many times faster that existing techniques without compromise in the reconstruction quality. This algorithm is best suited for applications where the spatial light modulator has many pixels and phase levels while the reconstruction plane contains a relatively small number of spots.
