White-Light Transmission Color Holographic Imaging

Recent methods of color holographic imaging utilizing white-light processing techninues are presented. These methods consist of rainbow holography, spatial holographic encoding, coherent and whitelight speckle effects, double-aperture encoding technique, dual-beam encoding principle, incoherent spatial encoding method and source encoding concept. The details of holographic construction and reconstruction processes are provided. The advantages and disadvantages of these color holographic imagings are discussed. The experimental demonstrations of these techniques are given.
