Hogels record the intensity and direction of the light (giving the ability to "look around" the hologram object).

Yes, this hogel information is permanently exposed onto the hologram film.



So, the holograms are made of "pixels" that look different from different angles? If so, how much crosstalk is it, and how many discrete angles are we talking? Very cool!


Currently a 45 degree view zone with 23 separate view zone images, so about every 2 degrees. Very little crosstalk.
