In this paper, we propose an auto-focusing algorithm which extracts a depth parameter by analyzing a selected part of a hologram, and we use experimental results to show that the algorithm is practical. First, we record a complex hologram using Optical Scanning Holography. Next we select some part of hologram and extract depth information through Gaussian low pass filtering, synthesizing a real-only hologram, power fringe-adjusted filtering and inverting to a new frequency axis. Finally, we reconstruct the hologram automatically using the extracted depth location.

We propose a technique that reconstructs a hologram whose pixel number is greater than the pixel numbers of a conventional image sensor. The pixel numbers of the hologram recorded by optical scanning holography (OSH) increases as the scan area becomes larger. The reconstruction time also increases drastically as the size of the hologram increases. The holographic information of a three-dimensional (3D) scene is distributed throughout the recorded hologram; this makes the simple divide-and-stitch approach fail. We propose a technique that reconstructs the hologram without loss of holographic information. First, we record the hologram of a 3D scene using OSH. Second, we segment the hologram into sub-holograms that contain complete holographic information. Third, we reconstruct the sub-holograms simultaneously. Finally, we rearrange the reconstructions of the sub-holograms.

We present an optical security method for binary data information by using 4-step phase-shifting digital holography and we analyze tolerance error for the decrypted data. 4-step phase-shifting digital holograms are acquired by moving the PZT mirror with equidistant phase steps of ${\pi}/2$ in the Mach-Zender type interferometer. The digital hologram in this method is a Fourier transform hologram and is quantized with 256 gray level. The decryption performance of the binary data information is analyzed. One of the most important errors is the quantization error in detecting the hologram intensity on CCD. The greater the number of quantization error pixels and the variation of gray level increase, the more the number of error bits increases for decryption. Computer experiments show the results for encryption and decryption with the proposed method and show the graph to analyze the tolerance of the quantization error in the system.

In this paper, we present a hybrid encryption for a digital hologram which is the most valuable image content. The encryption algorithm is based on a hybrid technique implementation a four-dimensional transform combining the discrete wavelet transform(DWT) and the discrete cosine transform (DCT). The encryption scheme is composed on the basis of the energy distribution. The experimental results showed that encrypting only 0.0244% of the entire data was enough to hide the constants of the hologram. The encryption algorithm expected to be used effectively on the researches on encryption and others for digital holographic display.

Because of its convenience and compatibility with various image processing techniques, digital image representation of holograms is generally used in digital holography, and thus, quality assessment of digital holograms is an essential issue. This study proposes a new objective quality metric for digital phase hologram image processing. The proposed metric is based on a newly defined phase distortion created by taking the 2π periodicity of phase information into account. The experimental results show that the proposed metric correlates with reconstruction image quality better than the existing metric under random distortions and also works well with JPEG 2000 compression. It is expected to be broadly used in phase image processing and compression applications including phase holograms.

In this Paper, Double Encryption Technology Based on Phase-Shifting Digital Holography and Digital Watermarking is Proposed. For the Purpose, we First Set a Logo Image to be used for Digital Watermark and Design a Binary Phase Computer Generated Hologram for this Logo Image using an Iterative Algorithm. And Random Generated Binary Phase Mask to be set as a Watermark and Key Image is Obtained through XOR Operation between Binary Phase CGH and Random Binary Phase Mask. Object Image is Phase Modulated to be a Constant Amplitude and Multiplied with Binary Phase Mask to Generate Object Wave. This Object Wave can be said to be a First Encrypted Image Having a Pattern Similar to the Noise Including the Watermark Information. Finally, we Interfere the First Encrypted Image with Reference Wave using 2-step PSDH and get a Good Visible Interference Pattern to be Called Second Encrypted Image. The Decryption Process is Proceeded with Fresnel Transform and Inverse Process of First Encryption Process After Appropriate Arithmetic Operation with Two Encrypted Images. The Proposed Encryption and Decryption Process is Confirmed through the Computer Simulations.

Digital holography interference pattern generated by a computer calculation (CGH) is one of the most expensive contents and its usage is being expanded. Thus, it is highly necessary to protect the ownership of digital hologram. In this paper a hologram-domain and a frequency-domain electronic watermarking schemes were proposed. The hologram-domain scheme was only to compare the results to the ones from frequency-domain scheme and the frequence-domain scheme used 2-dimensional against the attaks. Especially the MDWT-domain scheme was very high robustness such that th error ratio at the worst case was only 3%. Thus, we expect that it is used as a good watermarking scheme of digital hologram with high performance.

For digital holographic video system, it is important to generate digital hologram as fast as possible. This paper proposed a fixed-point method and fast generation method that can calculate the Fresnel hologram using operation of whole-coordinate recursive addition. To compute the digital hologram, 3D object is assumed to be a collection of depth-map point generated using a PC. Our algorithm can compute a phase on a hologram by recursive addition with fixed-point format at a high speed. When we operated this algorithm on a personal computer, we could maximally compute digital hologram about 70% faster than conventional method and about 30% faster than of [3]'s method.
