LentiAvatar: Pseudo-Multiview Reconstruction and Subpixel Prism Rendering for Real-Time Stereoscopic Communication

Real-time stereoscopic video communication has long been a goal of immersive telepresence, yet practical systems still require specialized capture rigs or reduce remote users to a single portrait view. We present LentiAvatar, a Gaussian head-avatar system that connects monocular avatar capture with subpixel-encoded glasses-free lenticular display for real-time autostereoscopic communication. From a monocular portrait video, LentiAvatar reconstructs a controllable head avatar and optimizes it for the lateral viewing zones induced by the display. The method uses natural head turns as pseudo-multiview (PMV) supervision to constrain regions that are otherwise weakly observed in monocular training, including hair, ears, jaw contours, and neck boundaries. Reliable side frames are yaw-binned, aligned to virtual cameras, and supervised within a strict head-and-hair domain; contour-aware losses and staged regularization further suppress ghosting, alpha leakage, and depth instability while preserving lateral detail. At runtime, LentiAvatar renders 32 virtual views and encodes them into a 4K lenticular raster with calibrated subpixel-routing masks. The live-tracker prototype sustains 10.65 FPS, and a subject-specific distilled driver raises the same display pipeline to 38.49 FPS.

Achromatic single-layer hologram

Phase retrieval is a fundamental technique of advanced optical technologies, enabling precise control over wavefront properties. A persistent challenge in diffractive optical element (DOE) design is that a single hologram typically operates within a single wavelength or color channel, limiting it to monochromatic image generation. This limitation in channel capacity significantly restricts the applicability of DOE in optical applications. In this study, we propose a design strategy for full-color, single-layer hologram based on a variable-scale diffraction model. By imposing strict constraints in Fourier domain and reducing depth of focus (DOF), we achieve the simultaneous encryption and storage of red, green, and blue channel information within a single achromatic hologram. This strategy facilitates color separation in large-depth 3D holography and enables achromatic full-color image displays. We demonstrated full-color holographic video playback at a full refresh rate of 60 Hz, achieving a temporal resolution three times greater than that of existing methods. Furthermore, we successfully fabricated achromatic, twin-image-free, full-color binary pure-phase DOEs at low cost. This achromatic strategy addresses the demands across various fields in optics, including high-refresh-rate full-color displays, high-density optical information storage, advanced optical security, high-reusability holographic metasurface optical element, and high-performance achromatic metalenses.

Phase space framework enables a variable-scale diffraction model for coherent imaging and display

The fast algorithms in Fourier optics have invigorated multifunctional device design and advanced imaging technologies. However, the necessity for fast computations has led to limitations in the widely used conventional Fourier methods, manifesting as fixed size image plane at a certain diffraction distance. These limitations pose challenges in intricate scaling transformations, 3D reconstructions and full-color displays. Currently, there is a lack of effective solutions, often resorting to pre-processing that compromise fidelity. In this paper, leveraging a higher-dimensional phase space method, we present a universal framework allowing for customized diffraction calculation methods. Within this framework, we establish a variable-scale diffraction computation model which allows the adjustment of the size of the image plane and can be operated by fast algorithms. We validate the model's robust variable-scale capabilities and its aberration automatic correction capability for full-color holography, achieving high fidelity. The large-magnification tomography experiment demonstrates that this model provides a superior solution for holographic 3D reconstruction. In addition, this model is applied to achieve full-color metasurface holography with near-zero crosstalk, showcasing its versatile applicability at nanoscale. Our model presents significant prospects for applications in the optics community, such as beam shaping, computer-generated holograms (CGHs), augmented reality (AR), metasurface optical elements (MOEs) and advanced holographic head-up display (HUD) systems.
