Patent ID: 8786923

Claim:
A method of recording holograms in a target medium, the method comprising: sequentially recording first multiple holograms to a first holographic medium, wherein adjacent holograms of the first multiple holograms partially spatially overlap each other; sequentially recording second multiple holograms to a second holographic medium, wherein adjacent holograms of the second multiple holograms partially spatially overlap each other; reconstructing the first multiple holograms from the first holographic medium in parallel and recording the reconstructed first multiple holograms in a holographic master medium; reconstructing the second multiple holograms from the second holographic medium in parallel and recording the reconstructed second multiple holograms in the holographic master medium, wherein said recording the reconstructed first multiple holograms in the holographic master medium and said recording the reconstructed second multiple holograms in the holographic master medium include one or more multiplexing techniques selected from the group consisting of angle, wavelength, confocal, fractal, phase code, and peristrophic multiplexing, such that the reconstructed first multiple holograms overlap the reconstructed second multiple holograms in the holographic master medium; and reconstructing holograms stored in the holographic master medium and recording the reconstructed holograms in the target medium.
