A method for synthesizing computer-generated holograms of real-existing objects is described. A series of projection images are recorded both vertically and horizontally with an incoherent light source and a color CCD camera. According to the principle of computer tomography(CT), the 3-D Fourier spectrum is calculated from several projection images of objects and the Fresnel computer-generated hologram(CGH) is synthesized using a part of the 3-D Fourier spectrum. This method has following advantages. At first, no-blur reconstructed images in any direction are obtained owing to two-dimensionally scanning in recording. Secondarily, since not interference fringes but simple projection images of objects are recorded, a coherent light source is not necessary for recording. The use of a color CCD in recording enables us to record and reconstruct colorful objects. Finally, we demonstrate color reconstruction of objects both numerically and optically.
