To solve these problems, we implement herein a spatiotemporal division multiplexing method on a cluster system with 13 GPUs connected by a gigabit Ethernet network.A performance evaluation indicates that the proposed method can realize a real-time holographic video of a3 D object comprising ~1,200,000 object points. These results demonstrate a clear 3 D holographic video at32.7 frames per second reconstructed from a 3 D object comprising 1,064,462 object points.展开更多
