Abstract
The advent of holography and the laser as an extremely intense,
coherent light source has opened new dimensions in interferometric
techniques. Precision optics are not required, alignment is not a
critical factor, and three-dimensional interferograms of a flow field
are obtainable. These are only a few of the advantages that stand out
over present day interferometers. A brief outline of the holographic
interferometric process and its capabilities is presented here. A
detailed exposition of the continuous reconstruction beam technique is
given from experience gained with such a device in the Department of
Aeronautics of the Naval Postgraduate School.
