HOLOGRAM PROCESSING METHOD AND SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a hologram, or holographic intensity data, processing method and system. The system implements the method which comprises receiving holographic intensity data comprising at least a holographic intensity pattern or image at a discrete location in a propagation space, the propagation space comprising the three-dimensional space over which light waves or illumination forming the holographic intensity pattern propagates. The method comprises determining one or more data key-points of at least one potential object of interest (19) in the received holographic intensity data, and also comparing the determined one or more data key-points to at least one pre-determined propagation space invariant object descriptor associated with an object to determine a match in order to identify or detect the object and determine its location in the propagation space.
