Emmett Leith:-
Pioneer of Modern Holography
As early as 1956, Emmett Leith of the University of Michigan reinvented holography as a spin-off of his research on side-reading radar. Only in the early 1960s, after the invention of the laser, the first off-axis laser transmission holograms were recorded by Leith and his colleague Juris Upatnieks. These novel holograms of diffusely reflecting objects produced stunning three-dimensional and full-parallax reconstructions of the original object. The impact of this invention on the careers of many can hardly be overrated.
