Holography (from the Greek, whole + write) is the 
science of producing holograms 
It is an advanced form of photography that allows an 
image to be recorded in three dimensions. 
The technique of holography can also be used to 
optically store, retrieve, and process information.
Dennis Gabor - Father of Holography and 
Holographic Technologies 
Dennis wrote a paper in 1948 
that has become the foundation 
of modern Holography. 
The most interesting thing about all this is 
that laser light had not even been invented 
yet, when he wrote his paper.
Transmission Holograms 
Use 2 beam for create interference 
Intensity is around 3:1 or 4:1(power per unit area) 
More setup and equipment 
Reflection Holograms 
Place the film between light source and object
Recording a Hologram
Reconstructing a Hologram
If you look at these holograms from different angles, you 
see objects from different perspectives, just like you would 
if you were looking at a real object 
They usually just look like sparkly pictures or smears of 
color 
If you cut one in half, each half contains whole views of 
the entire holographic image.

• Cost effective 
• Higher storage capacity 
• Increased feasibility of objects (depth) 
• Enables the achievement of multiple images on a single 
plate and 3D images 
• Ability to combine with other technologies
• Provide static images 
• Do not produce images of complex movement 
• Require complicated precise machinery to produce and 
view an image 
• Low axial resolution of inline holography 
• Reference illumination beams are collinear
Holographic Technology has endless applications as far 
as the human mind can imagine 
Holographic Technologies are not just about art or 
business communication, they are about safety , 
security , education , planning and the strength of our 
civilization here and beyond 
 Holographic Technology will became a very integral 
part of human societies and civilizations in the future
