Ergonomic-Centric Holography: Optimizing Realism,Immersion, and Comfort for Holographic Display

Abstract

We introduce ergonomic-centric holography, an algorithmic framework that simultaneously optimizes for realistic incoherent defocus, unrestricted pupil movements in the eye box, and high-order diffractions for filtering-free holography. The proposed method outperforms prior algorithms on holographic display prototypes operating in unfiltered and pupil-mimicking modes, offering the potential to enhance next-generation virtual and augmented reality experiences.
