On holographic information content and its compression

The present paper, based on the information theory of Shannon, studies the holographic information content, its reconstruction, and the compression of the hologram. Starting with the human binocular vision theory, it elaborates not only the information contents of the 3D object and its hologram, but also their relationship in the visual space. By proposing the particular computing method for the holographic information content and achieving meaningful results therefore, it offers the theoretical cornerstone and practical way to the reduction and compression of the holographic information content.
