This document provides an overview of holography, including its definition, history, principles, recording and reconstruction processes, properties, and applications. Holography allows for the recording and reconstruction of three-dimensional images of objects using the properties of light. The technique was first proposed by Dennis Gabor and later developed by Leith and Upatnieks using lasers. Current and future applications of holography include advertisements, medical imaging, entertainment, and architecture. The technology continues to advance and may eventually replace other display methods.
