Has anyone here tried there hand at integral photography or integral computer imaging?



I just read an article from the 1969 November Issue of Applied Optics, titled "Beaded Plate Recording of Integral Photographs", by C. B. Burckhardt and E.T. Doherty which seemed interesting.



Basically, they embedded tiny glass beads into a film plate emulsion and explosed the plate to a virtual image of another integral photograph. They said it could work if you used the virtual image of a hologram, too.



Anyway, I just received a #300 hex lens array yesterday from Fresnel Technologies and I'm going to do some experimenting with it.

This seems to go back to Gabriel Lippmann. Maybe Colin has put the file (in French) I sent, dealing with integral photography online...

Martin,



All of the files are there but I need to link to them on the index page. If you remember the name I can provide a link.

Meanwhile, I put the files I sent you into some structure (sorry, I didn't do that earlier – I've been suffering from health problems).

Yes, I think it's true you can make a hologram from an integral photo.

I'll have to check out those articles when the links are up.



I tried rendering an image at a resolution of 2000x1600 in Pov-Ray for my test.



Here's a low-res sample of my test image.

With my test, I ended up with about 3 to 4 inches of useable depth and anything beyond that ended up being too fuzzy to make out. The back wall in the room in this image is about 8 inches away. I suppose this had to do with "data loss" with objects that were farther away due to the rendering and print resolution.



I guess if I rendered the image at a higher resolution and print using a better dpi I might get an image with better depth.



I'll try and render at 4000x3200 next time and try printing at a better dpi, too.



I'll try and post some photos of the 3d images being re-constructed with the lens array when I get the chance.



It seemed pretty strange seeing objects that appeared to be embedded deep inside my clipboard when I first tried this out. :)

Thank you Martin. I will organize this stuff a little and make the new link page here:

Here's some photographs that I took of another 3D test image that I rendered in POV-Ray being reconstructed using the hexagonal lens array.

Hey, that's pretty neat!
