TLDR
A method for optical encryption of three-dimensional (3D) information by use of digital holography using a phase-shifting interferometer and an intensity-recording device.
Abstract
A method for optical encryption of three-dimensional (3D) information by use of digital holography is presented. A phase-shifting interferometer records the phase and amplitude information generated by a 3D object at a plane located in the Fresnel diffraction region with an intensity-recording device. Encryption is performed optically by use of the Fresnel diffraction pattern of a random phase code. Images of the 3D object with different perspectives and focused at different planes can be generated digital or optically after decryption with the proper key. Experimental results are presented.

Analysis of partially occluded objects encoded in digital holograms using the Wigner distribution function

TL;DR: It is shown that by iteratively selecting different views, the original scene can be reconstructed e±ciently, and would be useful in situations where transmission of the whole digital hologram, or exhaustive reconstruction of every perspective, was not feasible.

An algorithm for the machine calculation of complex Fourier series

TL;DR: Good generalized these methods and gave elegant algorithms for which one class of applications is the calculation of Fourier series, applicable to certain problems in which one must multiply an N-vector by an N X N matrix which can be factored into m sparse matrices.

Phase-shifting digital holography

TL;DR: A new method is proposed in which the distribution of complex amplitude at a plane is measured by phase-shifting interferometry and then Fresnel transformed by a digital computer, which can reconstruct an arbitrary cross section of a three-dimensional object with higher image quality and a wider viewing angle than from conventional digital holography using an off-axis configuration.
