As an alternative to the photochemistry and vibration-free settings involved with regular holography, this program allows you to create a transmission hologram using just a computer, a laser printer, and an overhead transparency. This hologram will behave like one created using a laser, and can be projected or viewed with a point source. You create a computer-generated hologram using the MedCosm CGHMaker by specifying an input file as either a GIF image, a JAVA program, or an XML "point-source" list. Compute the interference fringes, print on a transparency, and enjoy your hologram.

Recent releases


Changes: Minor feature enhancements were done to make experimenting a bit easier. These changes include output window labelling, reorganized output algorithms, new intensity output, threshold available for all binary outputs, a median/50% threshold button, display output byte clipping, and normalized output options.


Changes: This release added tooltips and X/Y plate offset entry for computing larger, multi-plate holograms. Minor internal changes were made along with a total-ray calculation fix.


Changes: This version features better error handling, a description of 3 input file methods, and a code cleanup.
