The synthetic holographic stereogram printing technique can achieve a three-dimensional (3D) display of a scene. The development and research status of the synthetic holographic stereogram printing technique is introduced in this paper. We propose a two-step method, an infinite viewpoint camera method, a single-step Lippmann method, a direct-write digital holography (DWDH) method and an effective perspective images’ segmentation and mosaicking (EPISM) method. The synthetic holographic stereogram printing technique is described, including the holographic display with large format, the large field of view with no distortion, the printing efficiency, the color reproduction characteristics, the imaging quality, the diffraction efficiency, the development of a holographic recording medium, the noise reduction, and the frequency response analysis of holographic stereograms.
