Effects of spatiotemporal averaging processes on the estimation of spectral reflectance in color digital holography using speckle illuminations.
We present the effects of spatiotemporal averaging processes on an estimation of spectral reflectance in color digital holography using speckle illuminations. In this technique, speckle fields emitted from a multimode fiber are used as both a reference wave and a wavefront illuminating an object. The interference patterns of two coherent waves for three wavelengths are recorded as digital holograms on a CCD camera. Speckle fields are changed by vibrating the multimode fiber using a vibrator, and a number of holograms are acquired to average reconstructed images. After performing an averaging process, which we refer to as a temporal averaging process in this study, using images reconstructed from multiple holograms, a spatial averaging process is applied using a smoothing window function. For the estimation of spectral reflectance in reconstructed images, we use the Wiener estimation method. The effects of the averaging processes on color reproducibility are evaluated by a chromaticity diagram, the root-mean-square error, and color differences.
