In the 60 years since Gabor’s invention, holography has become much more than a way to capture and visualize 3D information. The tools of holography have been applied to many fields of optics and photonics, including optical data and image processing, invariant pattern recognition, optical fuzzy logic control and super resolution and imaging.
