Abstract
Abstract This invention pertains to holography and particularly to a novel method for producing holographic stereogram images from a sequential series of two dimensional images generated on a liquid crystal display matrix. Further a liquid crystal display matrix is used to generate a vertical slit aperture for the masking of a halographic plate.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
125 words
A method of constructing a multiplex hologram of two dimensional images displayed on an LCD display, comprising: generating a series of two-dimensional images; displaying successive ones of said images on an LCD display matrix; providing a holographic plate to be exposed; directing an object beam of coherent radiation at the LCD display matrix so that the transmitted coherent radiation is incident on the holographic plate; directing a reference beam of coherent radiation at the holographic plate to produce, in combination with the transmitted object beam, a holographic interference pattern on the plate; and selectively exposing portions of the plate, through slit apertures in a second LCD display matrix, said portions corresponding to successive ones of the images to form a multiplex hologram on the plate.
