In holography, what is created?

  • Digital copy

  • Virtual reality

  • 3D image

  • 2D photograph

Answer

In holography, a three-dimensional (3D) image is created by capturing and reproducing the light scattered from an object using coherent light sources such as lasers. Unlike conventional photography, holography records both the amplitude and phase information of the light, allowing for the reconstruction of a realistic and detailed 3D representation of the object when illuminated with the appropriate light source.
