Scientists have developed a new technology that allows a hologram of an entire XNUMXD space to be taken into the computer with one click
Will we soon be able to go for a walk in the great outdoors with a holographic pocket camera with which one can shoot into a computer with one click a hologram of an entire XNUMXD space?
Two scientists, one from Israel and the other from the USA, believe that such a vision is quite close. Prof. Yossi Rosen from Ben-Gurion University in the Negev and Prof. Gary Brooker from Johns Hopkins University in the USA developed a new technology of photographing holograms of XNUMXD objects in natural white light without the use of lasers as is customary today.
The technology is based on the intelligent use of tiny liquid crystal displays. The first use for this technology, demonstrated by them, is a holographic microscope that views three-dimensional biological models that emit fluorescent light. Such light is random and spontaneous, so it is not possible to record a hologram from it with conventional techniques. But now, using the new technology, this is not only possible, but also done quickly, with one camera click, without scanning the model and without moving any component in the system.
"Our new method is definitely easier and simpler, more accurate and cheaper, and most importantly, it is faster and will therefore enable holographic video recording of objects in motion," emphasizes Prof. Rosen.
The new technology is called in foreign acronyms FINCH, and therefore the new microscope is called FINCHSCOPE. A scientific paper by the two researchers describing the holographic microscope and presenting its results is published in the March 2008 issue of the prestigious journal Nature Photonics.

he's a genius
I'm from his stream
The invention deserves its name. The next step is holographic action films in binoculars.
Well done Professor Rosen!
It's nice that you translated CCD camera (digital camera) as "intelligent use of tiny liquid crystal displays"
to the original article
to Professor Rosen
Well done, keep inventing and leading us all to better places.
Dan:
You probably don't know what a hologram is, but the whole idea is to create a three-dimensional vision experience without projecting a separate image to each eye. Such that you can observe it without special glasses and you can move around it and see it from different directions.
I don't know what the rating of this site is, but there are people here who feel as if even if they don't have anything strong to say, they have to tell everyone that you know it's not anyone's obligation to enter, and by the way, I'm not biased or anything, I just understand how difficult it is to establish, maintain and translate articles at such a pace from experience in the field
Why do you need lasers and crystals and you can't just use two normal cameras to capture a XNUMXD image?
Why write in such a tone? What's wrong with "it's a shame there's no detail / is it possible to get detail / I would expect there to be detail".
Instead of immediately shouting "shame"? Just a lack of culture on your part.
For those interested, the article accurately describes the scientific innovation
Why, is this a scientific site?! This is a site that tells about innovations in science and nothing else. So please lower your expectations.
Why is there no detail about how the device works?
Is this a way of reporting on a scientific website?
shame.
Lots of names and announcements, general descriptions and not a word about the principle of operation.
