Deep learning-assisted light sheet holography

In a novel approach to layer -based holography, we propose a machine learningassisted light sheet holography-an optimized holography technique which projects a target scene onto sheets of light along the longitudinal planes (i.e. planes perpendicular to the plane of the hologram). Using a convolutional neural network in conjunction with superposition of Bessel beams, we generate high -definition images which can be stacked in parallel onto longitudinal planes with very high fidelity. Our holography system provides high axial resolution and excellent control over the light intensity along the optical path, which is suitable for augmented reality and/or virtual reality applications.
