[ noun ] the branch of optics that deals with the use of coherent light from a laser in order to make a hologram that can then be used to create a three-dimensional image <noun.cognition>
holography \ho*log"ra*phy\, v. t. The process of producing holograms, usually requiring a source of coherent light, as from a laser. [PJC]
Founded in 1985, the MIT lab has been a center for scientists seeking new applications for computers, holography, television and other media.
The process is phscolography, (pronounced skoh-LAH'-grah-fee), a combination of photography, holography, sculpture and computer graphics.
He conceded that holography has not developed as rapidly as some experts had hoped in the late 1960s, but he said holography research ultimately will yield clearer, better 3-D images than phscolography.
