REAL3D is a digital holography project funded by the EU and brings together nine participants from academia and industry under the FP7. As part of the project Nitesh Pandey, Damien Kelly, Bryan Hennelly and Thomas Naughton from the National University of Ireland, Maynooth demonstrate utilizing pre-computation and quantization of chirp matrices with GPUs running Jacket from AccelerEyes speeds up the reconstructions of digital holograms. Digital holography is a powerful imaging technique with many new applications like true 3D display. It allows the capture of both amplitude and phase information of the light reflected off the surface of 3D objects. Researchers at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth are developing techniques based on digital holography for 3D display applications. Reconstruction of …
