Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and method for encoding information and recording same as sets of variably spaced related marks stored in wavelength (color) and/or depth selective layers on the optical record wherein the encoded information is read by illuminating each set of such recorded marks selected by wavelength (color) or focal depth with a coherent read light to cause an optical interference pattern consisting of a varying distribution of amplitude maxima separated by amplitude nulls (or minimas) that change in accordance with the encoded information. This read interference pat-tern is detected by photosensing diode arrays and after decoding, the system outputs an information signal representing the original information.
