Systems and methods for a camera system for imaging a diffuse medium such as mammalian tissue are provided herein. In one example, a camera system includes a light source configured to emit light, a first beam splitter positioned to split the emitted light into a reference beam and a transmission beam; an aperture though which the transmission beam traverses en route to an object, and where an object beam formed from light reflected off the object is configured to travel back through the aperture, a concave lens, a convex lens, a second beam splitter positioned intermediate the concave lens and the convex lens, and a detector. The detector is configured to receive at least a portion of the object beam and a portion of the reference beam to capture an image of an interference between the reference beam and the object beam.

Navigation applications may utilize various input data to determine various navigation routes. One example method of operating may include providing at least one navigation instruction to a navigation device via a navigation application, detecting the at least one instruction via a detection application, obtaining an image of a physical object, performing a holo-acoustic object manipulation of the physical object, and providing a visual display of the holo-acoustic manipulation as an additional navigation instruction.

A light field (LF) display system implements a holographic video game. The LF display system includes an LF display assembly that displays holographic game content. The LF display system can also include a sensory feedback assembly that provides tactile feedback to users by projecting an ultrasonic wave, a tracking system that can track one or more body parts of a user, and a controller that executes a game application and generates display instructions for the LF display assembly. The LF display system can implement an interactive video game that tracks a body part of a player and provides both visual and haptic feedback to the player to depict an in-game interaction, such as an explosion or impact. The video game may be implemented as part of an LF gaming network.

The disclosure is directed to simulating forces using holographic objects. A method according to embodiments includes: generating an invisible holographic object, the invisible holographic object providing a haptic effect; displaying a visible holographic object; aligning the visible holographic object and the invisible holographic object to provide a visible and touchable combined holographic object, the combined holographic object providing the haptic effect; applying a force to the combined holographic object, the applied force causing a displacement of the combined holographic object and including an amplitude and direction; and adjusting the haptic effect of the combined holographic object to generate an adjusted haptic effect representative of an effect of the applied force on the combined holographic object.

A system and method for light field generation is disclosed. A proposed holographic display system encodes views of a scene into surface acoustic waves (SAW signals) that propagate along waveguides of SAW modulators and/or optical signals propagating in the waveguides. Each view provides a different perspective of the scene when the views are projected as light fields out of the SAW modulators and are viewed at different locations by an observer. In some examples, the system encodes the brightness information for each view into the light signals.

An ultrasonic holography imaging system and method are provided. The ultrasonic holography imaging system includes an ultrasonic transducer array coupled to an analog processing section. The analog processing section is coupled to a digital processing section. The digital processing section generates digital signals to be converted by the analog processing section into analog signals that are transmitted to individual transceiver elements within the ultrasonic transducer array to cause separate ones of the individual transceiver elements to emit ultrasonic waveforms that are differentiated from each other by one or more parameters, including amplitude, frequency, and phase or modulation thereof.
