Optical hough transform by use of rotationally multiplexed holograms

회전다중 홀로그램을 이용한 광학적 Hough 변환

We have shown that the Hough transform filter can be easily obtained by repeatedly recording one line segment pattern holographically by use of rotational multiplexing. With this filter, one can get resutls of the hough transform in the time of light propagation. To demonstrate our method experimentally, the hough transform filter for 18 different rottion angles was recorded, and experimental transform results were compared with simulated ones for a few input patterns. By introducing a compensation process for the non-uniformity of both the input plane wav eand the diffraction efficiency of each hologram. It is possible to get more precise transform results.
