Holographic Research Group

Description

De Montfort University is home to one of the very few holographic research groups in Europe.

Post-graduate students have access to the laser equipment, techniques and expertise required to make holograms within a doctoral education programme that is Practice-Based. It offers opportunities for both scientists and artists, photographers, digital media creators, game designers and professionals, to discover formal knowledge through individual practice within holographic display technology.

The Holographic Research Group is pleased to offer an extensive archive, and students are encouraged to make use of this unique facility during their study at the university.

The group promotes and demonstrates its research in schools. Impact is evident in the number of international conferences attended by the group, plus the number of peer-review papers published. All this, together with exhibitions, offer significant contributions to the impact, reach and importance of the group’s research within the Faculty of Arts, Design and Humanities.

Recent research projects include: Holographic Information Storage; Computer Generated Holography; Holosuite: An Exploration into Interactive Holographic Telepresence; Security Holograms: Methods and Applications of Optical Holography; Holographic Imaging for the Modern Museum; and Fine Art Practice and Holographic Imaging.
