UPDATE OF PATTERN GENERATOR SOFTWARE (VERSION 5.2.1)

An updated version of the HOLOEYE SLM Pattern Generator software is availalbe now. Updates are available for Windows 10 and above trough our download website at https://customers.holoeye.com. Besides some minor bug fixes the following improvements were made in version 5.2.1:

New Features

  • Support for latest HOLOEYE SLM devices(e.g. ERIS SLM).
  • In CGH batch computation dialog, there is now a button to directly play the computation result in HOLOEYE SLM SDK Slideshow Player. The latest Slideshow Player must be installed on the same PC in order to make this work.

Improvements

  • Examples are now installed into public user documents folder, instead of program files folder. The copying at program startup into current user documents has been removed.
  • Pre-installed example images have been improved to only save the CGH tile instead of providing images for different SLM resolutions.
  • CGH batch computation dialog now generates the tile only inside the generated CGH image files. Please make sure to address them in tiled mode (is automatically done by default).
  • Autodetection of CGH image files when opening pre-computed CGH tiles, which need the tiling option to be enabled.

Bug fixes

  • GAEA-2 SLMs was not detected under Windows 11. Fixed in this version.
  • Fixed behavior of “Test selected file on SLM” button in CGH batch computation dialog to behave like described in documentation.
  • Fixed binary sliders did not always create the correct gray level on the SLM screen like expected (254 instead of 255).
  • Fixed initial values of binary gray level sliders.
  • Invert gray values button is now always usable.
  • Fixed a tiling issue with cloned tabs containing a single CGH computation result.
  • Fixed a crash when opening image files with unusual widths, like 4010 pixel.
