Fast Wave-optics Rendering of Multiplane Images for 3D Holographic Displays

A new holographic rendering pipeline turns multiplane images into wave-optics CGH fast enough for practical use, with reported speedups up to 250,000x over primitive-based methods. The approach keeps image quality …

HoloPathTracer: Fast and Accurate Wave Path Tracing for Holography

Wave-optics holography is getting closer to something game teams could actually prototype with. This paper combines path tracing with the Rayleigh–Sommerfeld integral, so it can preserve depth continuity, view-dependent effects, …
