Algorithm Improves Holographic Displays STANFORD, Calif., Nov 23, 2021 — Research at Stanford University may lead to more realistic displays in virtual and augmented reality headsets. A team at the school has developed a technique to reduce a speckling distortion often seen in regular laser-based holographic displays, as well as a technique to more realistically represent the physics that would apply to the 3D scene if it existed in the real world. The research confronts the fact that current augmented and virtual reality headsets only show 2D images to each
