Apparently, the accompanying drawings described hereinafter are some of embodiments of the present disclosure, and a person of ordinary skill in the art can obtain other accompanying drawings according to these drawings without paying any creative effort.
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the embodiments described herein are merely a part but not all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without paying any creative effort on the basis of the embodiments in the present disclosure shall fall into the protection scope of the present disclosure.
There is a holographic display technology in which optical holography is realized by light interference and diffraction principles. Specifically, as shown in
However, since photosensitive material is provided on the holographic plate 21, the interference fringes recorded on the exposed holographic plate 21 will not be changed. When other images need to be displayed, the holographic plate 21 needs to be replaced so that the contents to be holographically displayed are limited.
To solve the problem, i.e., to be free of replacing a holographic plate during the holographic display of multiple images, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a holographic display device, as shown in
It is to be noted that one of the at least one composite hologram is formed by superposing N sub-holograms. The N sub-holograms are sub-holograms formed by interfering respective object waves B with respective reference waves C of multiple different objects through the interference principle shown in
On this basis, at least one composite hologram can be acquired by a computer generated hologram (CGH) technology. In a situation that the at least one composite hologram includes multiple holograms, the multiple holograms can be multiple successive images in a certain display order, or multiple non-successive and irrelevant images. This will not be limited in the present disclosure.
In the CGH technology, a mathematical description function of an object wave B can be directly input into a computer to simulate an actual interference process, so that interference fringes can be calculated and a computer generated hologram can be drawn.
Specifically, the process of drawing a composite hologram by computer-generated holography can include the following steps.
Firstly, sampling is made to obtain the values of multiple objects 20 or wave surfaces at discrete sampling points.
Then, an optical field distribution of the object wave B of each of the multiple objects 20 on a holographic plane is calculated.
Subsequently, encoding is performed, that is, a complex amplitude distribution of light waves on the holographic plane is encoded into a change in transmittance of each sub-hologram.
Finally, the hologram is plotted. Specifically, under the control of the computer, the change in transmittance of each sub-hologram is plotted to form a composite hologram. If the resolution of the device for plotting is not big enough, a large hologram is plotted and then zoomed out to obtain a composite hologram.
In this case, multiple composite holograms can be obtained by repeating the steps for multiple times.
On this basis, the computer loads the computer generated hologram to pixel units 11 of the spatial light modulator 10 shown in
The spatial light modulator 10 may include a liquid crystal spatial light modulator. Moreover, the spatial light modulator 10 may be of a reflection type or a transmission type. This will not be limited in the present disclosure.
To write holographic data of at least one composite hologram into the spatial light modulator by optical addressing or electrical addressing, as shown in
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, in order to reproduce the composite hologram, the holographic display device, as shown in
As shown in
In a situation that the number M of the light source components 401 is equal to the number N of sub-holograms in a composite hologram, the directions of propagation of emergent light of the M light source components 401 are in one-to-one correspondence to the directions of propagation of the respective reference waves C of the N sub-holograms.
In a situation that the number M of the light source components 401 is unequal to the number N of sub-holograms in a composite hologram, since M>N, the directions of propagation of emergent light of N light source components 401 among the M light source components 401 are in one-to-one correspondence to the directions of propagation of the respective reference waves C of the N sub-holograms in the composite hologram.
In a situation that the number M of the light source components 401 is unequal to the number N of sub-holograms in a composite hologram, the directions of propagation of emergent light of S light source components 401 among the M light source components 401 are in one-to-one correspondence to the directions of propagation of respective reference waves C of S sub-holograms among the N sub-holograms. N>S>2, wherein S is a positive integer.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, multiple composite holograms are stored in the controller 30. For example, in
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
In other embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the direction of propagation of initial emergent light of each light source component 401 may not exactly meet the requirement of reading the sub-holograms. In this case, the direction of propagation of the emergent light of each light source component 401 can be adjusted manually to be identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to each sub-hologram.
However, on one hand, the manual adjustment is not precise enough, so that the result of the holographic reproduction will be influenced; on the other hand, the manual adjustment is low in automation, time-consuming and labor-consuming. Therefore, in order to improve the display efficiency and the adjustment precision of the direction of propagation of the emergent light of each light source component 401 so as to realize better holographic reproduction and display effects, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the following approaches are employed.
As shown in
The controller 30 is connected to the spatial light modulator 10. The controller 30 can address each pixel unit 111 of the spatial light modulator 10 and write holographic data of the first composite hologram into the spatial light modulator 10, so that the spatial light modulator 10 is allowed to load the first composite hologram.
In addition, the controller 30 is connected to the driver 50, and the controller 30 is configured to acquire, from the stored multiple composite holograms, the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to each sub-hologram in the first composite hologram, for example, angles β and α, and then transmit a deflecting instruction to the driver 50 according to the result of acquisition.
The driver 50 is connected to each of the light source components 401a and 401b. The driver 50 is configured to drive, according to the deflecting instructions, the light source components 401a and 401b to deflect.
When the spatial light modulator 10 loads the first composite hologram, the controller 30 acquires included angles β and α between the directions of propagation of reference waves corresponding to the first and second sub-holograms and the light incoming surface 101 of the spatial light modulator 10. Subsequently, the controller 30 transmits deflecting instructions to the driver according to the result of acquisition. Specifically, the controller 30 can transmit, according to the acquired angles β and α, a first deflecting instruction matched with the angle β and a second deflecting instruction matched with the angle α to the driver 50. In this way, the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of the two light source components 401a and 401b is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in the first composite hologram, so that the reproduction of each sub-hologram in the first composite hologram is realized.
Subsequently, the controller 30 can write holographic data of the second composite hologram into the spatial light modulator 10 by addressing, so that the content displayed by the holographic display device is switched to the second composite hologram. In a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, if the direction of propagation of a reference wave C corresponding to each sub-hologram in the second composite hologram is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave C corresponding to each sub-hologram in the first composite hologram, it is unnecessary to change the direction of propagation of each light source component 401.
However, in a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, generally, the direction of propagation of a reference wave C corresponding to each sub-hologram in the second composite hologram is different from the direction of propagation of a reference wave C corresponding to each sub-hologram in the first composite hologram, it is necessary to change the angle of the required readout light. For example, in a situation that the first composite hologram shown in
In a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are partially different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, similarly, the sum-holograms in the second composite hologram may be reproduced by changing the directions of propagation of emergent light of at least one part of the light source components 401 in the light source 40.
When the spatial light modulator 10 loads the first hologram, the controller 30 is configured to acquire, from the stored multiple composite holograms, the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to each sub-hologram in the second composite hologram, that is, the angles ϕ and θ. Subsequently, the controller 30 transmits deflecting instructions to the driver 50 according to the result of acquisition. Specifically, the controller 30 transmits, according to the acquired angles ϕ and θ, a third deflecting instruction matched with the angle ϕ and a fourth deflecting instruction matched with the angle θ to the driver 50.
The driver 50 is connected to each of the light source components 401a and 401b. The driver 50 is configured to drive, according to the deflecting instructions, the light source components 401a and 401b to deflect so that the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in the second composite hologram. Specifically, the driver 50 controls, according to the third deflecting instruction, one light source component 401a to deflect so that the included angle between the direction of propagation of the emergent light of the light source component 401a and the light incoming surface 101 of the spatial light modulator 10 is the angle ϕ. In this way, the direction of propagation of the emergent light of the light source component 401a is identical to the direction of propagation of the reference wave of the third sub-hologram 203, and the third sub-hologram 203 can thus be reproduced. In addition, the driver 50 further controls, according to the fourth deflecting instruction, the other light source component 401b to deflect so that the included angle between the direction of propagation of the emergent light of the light source component 401b and the light incoming surface 101 of the spatial light modulator 10 is the angle θ. In this way, the direction of propagation of the emergent light of the light source component 401b is identical to the direction of propagation of the reference wave of the fourth sub-hologram 204, and the fourth sub-hologram 204 can thus be reproduced.
In a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, by changing the directions of propagation of emergent light of at least one part of the light source components 401 in the light source 40, the sum-holograms in the second composite hologram can be reproduced, so that observers at different positions can view different display contents. For example, in
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, by a method similar to the above method, multiple composite holograms can be displayed. The specific process is similar to the above process and will not be repeated here.
In the display process of the holographic display device, at least one composite hologram can be drawn by the computer generated holography, and the at least one composite hologram can be written into the spatial light modulator 10 by optical addressing or electrical addressing, so that the at least one composite hologram is loaded. Subsequently, read light is provided to the spatial light modulator 10 by the light source 40, and the at least one composite hologram can be reproduced. As described above, by adjusting the direction of propagation of the emergent light of each light source component 401, it is unnecessary to replace the holographic plate 21 when the holographic display device displays different composite holograms, so that the holographic display process is more convenient.
On the other hand, since the composite hologram includes multiple superposed sub-holograms, the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components 401 in the light source is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in one composite hologram, the light source 40 can reproduce multiple sub-holograms of one composite hologram respectively in one frame, so that multiple users at different positions are allowed to simultaneously view different holographic images and the display content is richer.
In another aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, through the cooperation between the controller 30 and the driver 50, the angle of irradiation of multiple light source components 401 for providing readout light can be regulated flexibly, so that the requirement of producing different sub-holograms in different composite holograms is satisfied better.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, in a situation that there are sufficient light source components 401 included in the light source 40, without changing the direction of propagation of emergent light of the light source component 401 in the light source 40, the purpose of reproducing sub-holograms in different composite holograms can also be achieved.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, sufficient light source components 401 can be arranged on the light incoming side of the spatial light modulator 10. The direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components among the light source components 401 is different. Each of at least two light source components among the light source components 401 is used for reproducing one sub-hologram in at least one composite hologram.
In another embodiment of the present disclosure, multiple light source components 401 are arranged around a central position of the spatial light modulator 10 in form of a circular arc, and the emergent direction of each light source component 401 is located above the radial direction of the circular arc. Of course, the arrangement mode of the light source components 401 is limited thereto as long as the light outgoing direction of the multiple light source components 401 can satisfy the requirement for reproducing each sub-hologram in at least one composite hologram.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, it is possible that the controller 30 is directly connected to each light source component 401, without any driver 50.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in
Arranging the at least two light source components successively and densely means that, within an allowable mounting tolerance and under the premise of ensuring an included angle between the directions of propagation of emergent light of at least two adjacent light source components among at least two light source components 401, the distance between two adjacent light source components can be decreased as far as possible. In some embodiments of the present disclosure, two adjacent light source components among at least two light source components 401 can partially come into contact with each other.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the holographic display device includes the controller 30 having multiple composite holograms stored therein. The controller 30 is connected to each light source component 401. The controller is configured to acquire, from the stored multiple composite holograms, the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to each sub-hologram in a composite hologram to be loaded. Subsequently, the controller 30 activates, according to the result of acquisition, at least two light source components 401 among the M light source components so that the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of the at least two activated light source components 401 is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a corresponding sub-hologram in the composite hologram to be loaded.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in
As shown in
When the spatial light modulator 10 loads the second composite hologram, as shown in
In a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, only some of light source components 401 in the light source 40 can be activated by the controller 30 to reproduce the sub-holograms in the second composite hologram.
In the holographic display device provided in this embodiment, the way of lightening multiple light source components 401 for providing readout light by the controller 30 can be regulated flexibility, and the requirement of reproducing different sub-holograms in different composite holograms is thus satisfied better.
Multiple composite holograms can be displayed by a method similar to the above control method. The specific process is roughly similar to the above process and will not be repeated here.

An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a display cabinet, including the holographic display device described above. The display cabinet has the same structure and beneficial effects as the holographic display device provided in the foregoing embodiments. The structure and beneficial effects of the holographic display device have been described in detail in the foregoing embodiments and will not be repeated here. The display cabinet is applicable to museum, aquarium, science and technology museum and other public places. In addition, the display cabinet can be cubic, cylindrical or the like, and this will not be limited in the present disclosure.
An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for driving the holographic display device described above, as shown in
S101: The spatial light modulator 10 shown in
In the step S101, the driving method is as follows:
The controller 30 addresses each pixel unit 111 of the spatial light modulator 10, and writes holographic data of the at least one composite hologram into the spatial light modulator 10. In a situation that the at least one composite hologram includes multiple composite holograms, the multiple composite holograms can be multiple successive images in a certain display order, or multiple non-successive and irrelevant images. In a situation that the multiple composite holograms are in a certain display order, dynamically holographic display can be realized.
S102: The light source 40 provides readout light to the spatial light modulator 10. This step may include: making the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components 401 in the light source 40 identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in one composite hologram.
On one hand, during the display process of the holographic display device, at least one composite hologram can be drawn by the computer generated holography, and the at least one composite hologram is written into the spatial light modulator 10 by optical addressing or electrical addressing, thereby realizing the loading of the at least one composite hologram. Subsequently, readout light is provided to the spatial light modulator 10 by the light source 40 so as to reproduce the at least one composite hologram. As described above, it is unnecessary to replace the holographic plate 21 during the process of displaying multiple images by the holographic display device, so that the holographic display process is faster and more convenient.
On the other hand, since one composite hologram includes multiple superposed sub-holograms, and the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components 401 is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in one composite hologram, the light source 40 can reproduce multiple sub-holograms in one composite hologram in one frame, so that multiple users at different positions are allowed to simultaneously view different holographic images and the display content is richer.
When the spatial light modulator loads a composite hologram or when the loaded composite hologram is switched from one image to another new image, the purpose of reproducing sub-holograms in different composite holograms can be achieved by changing the direction of propagation of emergent light of at least one part of light source components 401 in the light source 40.
By taking the controller 30 storing multiple composite holograms as example, in a situation that the holographic display device (as shown in
S201: The controller 30 acquires and stores multiple composite holograms.
S202: The controller 30 acquires, from the multiple composite holograms, the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to each sub-hologram in a composite hologram to be loaded, that is, the angles β (or ϕ) and α (or θ). Then, the controller transmits, according to the result of acquisition, deflecting instructions to the driver 50.
Optionally, the controller 30 transmits, according to the acquired angles β (or ϕ) and α (or θ), one deflecting instruction matched with the angle β (or ϕ) and another deflecting instruction matched with the angle α (or θ) to the driver 50.
S203: The driver 50 drives, according to the deflecting instructions, the light source components 401 to deflect so that the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components 401 is identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in a composite hologram to be loaded.
By taking the holographic display device reproducing sub-holograms in the second composite hologram as example, as shown in
In a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, by changing the direction of propagation of emergent light of at least one part of light source components in the light source 40, the sum-holograms in the second composite hologram can be reproduced so that observers at different positions can view different display contents. For example, in
For another example, in a situation that there are sufficient light source components 401 included in the light source 40, without changing the direction of propagation of emergent light of light source component 401 in the light source 40, the purpose of reproducing sub-holograms in different composite holograms can also be achieved.
The holographic display device includes a controller 30, and M light source components 401 in the light source 40 are arranged on the light incoming side of the spatial light modulator 10. The direction of propagation of emergent light of each of at least two light source components among the M light source components 401 is different, and each of at least two light source components among the M light source components 401 is used for reproducing a corresponding sub-hologram in a composite hologram. In this situation, as shown in
S301: The controller 30 stores multiple composite holograms.
S302: The controller 30 acquires, from the multiple composite holograms, the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to each sub-hologram in a composite hologram to be loaded, that is, the angles β (or ϕ) and α (or θ).
S303: The controller 30 activates, according to the result of acquisition, at least two light source components 401, the direction of propagation of emergent light of each of the at least two activated light source components 401 being identical to the direction of propagation of a reference wave corresponding to a sub-hologram in the composite hologram to be loaded.
By taking the holographic display device reproducing sub-holograms in the second composite hologram as example, as shown in
In a situation that the sub-holograms superposed in the second composite hologram are different from the sub-holograms superposed in the first composite hologram, only some of light source components 401 in the light source 40 can be activated by the controller 30 to reproduce the sub-holograms in the second composite hologram. Similarly, multiple composite holograms can be displayed by the above control method. The specific process is as described above and will not be repeated here.
