Combined Shadow and Illumination Detection in 3D

What can we do to enhance shadow and illumination detection results with the extra depth information we get from 3D cameras?
Multiplane (3D) Image Formation
How can an optical system display multiple planes of information or images, at different distances in depth?  While in principle a single computer-generated hologram can do this, in reality information limits (space bandwidth product) make this approach not practical, especially for real-time varying displays.  In this project, we have considered the use of multiple planes of computer-generated holograms, or diffractive optical elements, to realize this kind of image formation.
Display Applications of Multiplane Image Formation
How can multiplane image formation systems be applied to 3D displays? In this project we investigate the applicability to vehicular head-up displays and glasses-mounted displays.
