Abstract

A method and a viewing device for generation of selective visual effects. The method entails encoding a holographic optical transparency for generating pre-selected patterns of light when stimulated by appropriate sources of light and a structure to enable viewing through such a transparency. The viewing device contains a suitably encoded holographic optical transparency and a structure produced with semi-rigid material which allow viewing of the natural scene through the transparency with two eyes. The encoding of the transparencies causes all limited extent light sources in a scene to be replaced with pre-selected patterns of light while producing minimal distortion in the remainder of the scene.
