The purpose of this paper is to propose a service system for a digital hologram video, which has not been published yet. This system assumes the existing service framework for 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional image/video, which includes data acquisition, processing, transmission, reception, and reconstruction. This system includes acquisition of color and depth image pairs from a image acquisition system with vertical rigs, rectification of acquired image pairs and generating digital hologram. Also it is designed to reduce the CGH (computer-generated hologram) generation time to 1/3. It also includes some additional and optional functions such as watermarking, compression, and encryption.

In this paper, we discuss and propose a new algorithm of coding technique for scalably servicing holographic video in various decoding environment. The proposed algorithm consists of the hologram-based resolution scalable coding (HRS) and the light source-based SNR scalable coding (LSS). They are classified by the method generating and capturing hologram. HRS is a scalable coding technique for the optically captured hologram and LSS is one for the light source before generating hologram. HRS can provide the scalable service of 8 steps with the compression ratio from 1:1 to 100:1 for a $1,024{\times}1,024$ hologram. LSS can also provide the various service depending on the number of the light source division using lossless compression. The proposed techniques showed the scalable holographic video service according to the display with the various resolutions, computational power of the receiving equipment, and the network bandwidth.

This paper is to propose a scalable video coding scheme for adaptive digital hologram video service for various reconstruction environments. It uses both the light source information and digital hologram at both the sending side and the receiving side. It is a resolution-scalable coding method that scales the resolution, that is, the size of the reconstructed image. The method compresses the residual data for both the digital hologram and the light source information. For the digital hologram, a lossy compression method is used, while for the light source information, a lossless compression method is used. The experimental results showed that the proposed method is superior to the existing method in the image quality at the same compression ratio. Especially it showed better performance than the existing method as the compression ratio becomes higher.

The purpose of this paper is to propose a service system for a digital hologram video, which has not been published yet. This system assumes the existing service frame for 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional image/video, which includes data acquisition, processing, transmission, reception, and reconstruction. This system also includes the function to service the digital hologram at the viewer's view point by tracking the viewer's face. For this function, the image information at the virtual view point corresponding to the viewer's view point is generated to get the corresponding hologram. Here in this paper, only a prototype that includes major functions of it is implemented, which includes camera system for data acquisition, camera calibration and image rectification, depth/intensity image enhancement, intermediate view generation, digital hologram generation, and holographic image reconstruction by both simulation and optical apparatus. The proposed prototype system was implemented and the result showed that it takes about 352ms to generate one frame of digital hologram and reconstruct the image by simulation, or 183ms to reconstruct image by optical apparatus instead of simulation.

This paper propose a contents security technique for digital holographic display service. Digital holographic video system assumes the existing service frame for 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional video, which includes data acquisition, processing, transmission, reception, and reconstruction. In this paper, we perform the encryption of RGB image and depth-map for such a system. The experimental results showed that encrypting only 0.048% of the entire data was enough to hide the constants of the RGB image and depth-map.

Recently, many researches on digital holograms, which retain almost perfect 3 dimensional image information, have been performed actively that it seems for them to be serviced soon. Accordingly, this paper proposes a data compression technique for a digital hologram video for this service. It uses H.265/HEVC, the most recent international 2 dimensional video compression standard, for which we consider various domain transform methods to increase the correlation among the pixels in a digital hologram. Also we consider the various parameters on H.265/HEVC. The purpose of this paper is to find empirically the optimal condition for the domain transform method, the size of transform unit, and the H.265/HEVC parameters. The proposed method satisfying the optimal parameter set found is compared to the existing methods to prove that ours shows better performance.

In this paper, we propose a new system which can generate digital holograms for natural color scene. The system consists of both a camera system for capturing images and softwares(SWs) for various image processings. The camera system uses a vertical rig with a depth and a RGB camera and a cold mirror which has the different transmittance according to wavelength for obtaining images with the same view point. The S/W is composed by the engines for processing and servicing the captured images and computer-generated hologram (CGH) for generating digital holograms using general-purpose computing on graphics processing unit (GPGPU). Each algorithm was implemented using C/C++ and CUDA languages, and all engines were integrated in LabView environment. The proposed system can generate 10 digital holographic frames per second using about 6K light sources.

In this paper, we proposed a pipeline system for holographic image production in a web server-based environment. There are time and spatial constraints for the existing holographic image production. The purpose of the proposed system is to obtain high-quality holographic images by reducing accessibility to users. It is a structure in which a video captured by a user in a web environment is transmitted to a server and converted into a frame for holographic image production through post-production. For high-quality holographic image acquisition, post-processing uses a deep learning-based algorithm. The proposed system provides various service tools in the web environment for user convenience. Through this method, the user's accessibility is improved when producing holographic images because images are taken in a web environment rather than in a limited space.
