Computer-Generated Holography¶
Odak contains essential ingredients for research and development targeting Computer-Generated Holography.
We consult the beginners in this matter to Goodman's Introduction to Fourier Optics book (ISBN-13: 978-0974707723) and Principles of optics: electromagnetic theory of propagation, interference and diffraction of light from Max Born and Emil Wolf (ISBN 0-08-26482-4).
In the rest of this document, you will find engineering notes and relevant functions in Odak that helps you describing complex nature of light on a computer.
Note that, the creators of this documentation are from Computational Displays domain, however the provided submodules can potentially aid other lines of research as well, such as Computational Imaging or Computational Microscopy.
