This project provides a Julia package for controlling a spatial light modulator (SLM). It allows you to display a fullscreen image, represented by a matrix of UInt8 values, on a specified monitor. The package leverages OpenGL.jl for rendering and GLFW.jl for window management.
The package is in the General Registry, so you can install it by hitting ] in a Julia REPL to enter the PKG mode and then typing
add SpatialLightModulator
Here's a basic example of how to use the SpatialLightModulator package:
using SpatialLightModulator
# Create an SLM instance for the last monitor
slm = SLMDisplay()
# Generate random hologram data
holo = rand(UInt8, slm.width, slm.height)
# Update the hologram displayed on the SLM
updateArray(slm, holo)
# Close the SLM window
close(slm)For the calculation of holograms used to produce structured light modes, consider using StructuredLight.jl.
SLMDisplay(monitor::Int=lastindex(GetMonitors()))
Create a new Spatial Light Modulator (SLM) window.
monitor is the index of the monitor to use. By default, the last monitor is used.
To get the list of available monitors, use GetMonitors(), which is re-exported from GLFW.jl.
updateArray(slm::SLMDisplay, data::AbstractMatrix{UInt8}; sleep=0.15)
Update the array displayed on the SLM.
data is a 2D matrix of UInt8 values representing the hologram.
The size of data must match the size of the SLM window.
Sleep for sleep seconds after updating the hologram. This is useful to give the SLM time to update the hologram.
close(slm::SLMDisplay)
Close the SLM window.
