A holographic system that records front-surface detail of a scene moving at high velocity

A holographic technique that uses an elliptical orientation for the holographic arrangement is discussed. It is shown that the degree of image degradation is not only a function of exposure time but also of the system used. The form of the functional system dependence is given, as well as the results of several systems tested, which verify this dependence. It is further demonstrated that the important parameter is the total motion of the target. Using the experimentally determined resolution of front-surface detail from a target with a velocity of 17,546 centimeters per second, an upper limit on target velocity for resolution of front-surface detail for a given system can be predicted.
