In Optics letters
In this Letter, we demonstrate a deep-learning-based method capable of synthesizing a photorealistic 3D hologram in real-time directly from the input of a single 2D image. We design a fully automatic pipeline to create large-scale datasets by converting any collection of real-life images into pairs of 2D images and corresponding 3D holograms and train our convolutional neural network (CNN) end-to-end in a supervised way. Our method is extremely computation-efficient and memory-efficient for 3D hologram generation merely from the knowledge of on-hand 2D image content. We experimentally demonstrate speckle-free and photorealistic holographic 3D displays from a variety of scene images, opening up a way of creating real-time 3D holography from everyday pictures.
