Abstract: according to examples, a computing system may include a processor and a memory on which is stored machine-readable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to use an optical propagation model and perceptual loss function to match an output of a spatial light modulator (slm) based holographic display to that of a target image, wherein an input illumination into the slm includes three simultaneous human-visible wavelengths of light. through the simultaneous input of three human-visible wavelengths of light into a common slm, the need for spatial or temporal multiplexing of three colors may be eliminated, which may improve a display's viability in terms of form factor and/or refresh rate.
