Incoherent computer-generated holography

Abstract
We present a method for computer-generated holography (CGH) using spatially and temporally incoherent light. The proposed method synthesizes a hologram cascade by solving an inverse problem for the propagation of incoherent light. The spatial incoherence removes speckle noise in CGH, and the temporal incoherence simplifies the optical setup, including the light source. We demonstrate two- and three-dimensional color image reproductions by a two-layer grayscale hologram cascade with a chip-on-board white light-emitting diode.
