Abstract

A visualization system includes an optical recording unit configured to capture optical signals characterizing at least one partial region of an object, a 3D reconstruction unit configured to ascertain spatial data sets, which describe the partial region of the object, based on the captured optical signals, a hologram computational unit configured to ascertain control data for producing a holographic presentation based on the spatial data sets of the partial region of the object, and a visualization unit configured to visualize a holographic presentation of the at least one partial region of the object for a user of the visualization system based on the control data. In addition, a suitable method for producing holographic presentations from optical signals is provided.
