Abstract

Disclosed is a method for constructing a digital hologram to be displayed by of a display system. The display system includes a light modulator producing a light beam and a convergent optical device designed to make the light beam converge towards a focal point. The scene is defined by a set of luminous elements. The construction method includes a step of determining values respectively associated with the pixels of the digital hologram by summing the light contributions respectively produced by the luminous elements with weighting, for each of the light contributions, by a correction coefficient depending on the area of the intersection of a surface between the convergent optical device and the focal point, and a pencil of light having a predetermined angular opening and transmitted through the convergent optical device from the luminous element producing the light contribution concerned. An associated holographic system is also described.
