Scalable coarse integral holographic video display with integrated spatial image tiling.

The dynamic Coarse Integral Holography (CIH) display demonstrated previously can scan the low space bandwidth product (SBP) holographic images delivered by a high bandwidth spatial light modulator (SLM) to form a hologram array for angular tiling of the 3D images for a large field-of-view but only a modest size despite the utilization of the full bandwidth of the SLM in use. In this paper, we propose a scalable approach using seamless spatial tiling of the full bandwidth images generated by two high bandwidth SLMs using a resonant scanner and a high performance galvanometric scanner for a scalable CIH display capable of achieving twice of the final image size and doubled horizontal field-of-view (FOV). A proof-of-concept system is demonstrated with integrated full-parallax holographic 3D images. The proposed method has the potential to tile images generated by more than two SLMs for scalable large size and wide FOV holographic displays.
