Applications Of Holography And Optical Data Processing

Applications of Holography and Optical Data Processing

Applications of Holography and Optical Data Processing contains the proceedings of the International Conference on Applications of Holography and Optical Data Processing, held in Jerusalem in August 1976. The conference is attended by eminent scientists in the field of optics, characterized by high-level scientific presentations and discussions. The collection is a representation of research on the cutting edge of applied and theoretical optics. The four-day meeting covers topics on holographic applications in medicine, interferometry, display, storage, and retrieval, as well as image processing, measuring techniques, spectroscopy, and recording materials and devices. The participants of the conference believe in the promising future of research on Optical Data Processing as long as techniques are complemented by electronic support. The book will be of value to electronics engineers, technicians, computer scientists, and computer engineers.

Industrial Applications for Optical Data Processing and Holography

Industrial Applications for Optical Data Processing and Holography discusses modern optics applications in the industrial setting. Holography and speckle metrology are emphasized through numerous examples where interferometry has been applied to gage displacements and velocities in solids and in fluids. Other detailed discussions of optics applications include fringe interpretation, pattern recognition, and the fine points of recording optical disturbances. New, successful techniques are carefully examined to analyze the aspects responsible for their success. The book also features an extensive index that will be indispensable for helping stress analysts locate specific applications. Its detailed reference lists will provide a solid reference resource for engineers and designers seeking additional information.
