Abstract

In synthetic holography, the emphasis has been on numerical simulation methods for the recording and reconstruction processes, but methods to visualize the calculated results are yet underdeveloped. We show how volume slicing and volume rendering using a threshold for translucency can be applied to synthetic holography. Results of the three-dimensional visualization of the reconstruction are presented, thereby illustrating the usefulness of the threshold operator
