Introduction
HVD is an advanced optical disk thats presently in the
development stage.
Storage capacity
:-
1 terabyte (TB).
1 Gigabit per second.
Data transfer rate :-
The technology permits over 10 kilobits of data to be written
and read in parallel with a single flash.
Introduction
An HVD would be a successor to todays Blu-ray and HD-
DVD technologies.
Advancements in the technology were made, in the early 21st
century.
Developed by the Holography Storage Development
Forum
HVD can store up to 60 times the data of a regular DVD and
it can read and write data 10 times faster as well.
What is HVD ?
Definition:- Holographic versatile disc is a holographic
storage format that looks like a DVD but is capable of storing far more data.
Prototype HVD devices have been created with a capacity of
3.9 terabytes (TB) and a transfer rate of 1 Gbps.
1 HVD = 5,500 CD-ROMs = 830 DVDs = 160 Blu-ray
discs
Uses laser beams to store data in 3D.

What is HVD ?
Basics of Holographic Memory

Holography is a method of recording patterns of light to
produce a 3D object.
The recorded patterns of light are called a hologram.
Creation of a hologram begins with a focused beam of light, a
laser.
Laser splits up into 2 :
Reference beam Information beam

When light encounters an image its composition changes.
When the information beam encounters an image, it carries
that image in its waveforms.

When the two beams intersect, it creates a pattern of light
interference and that can be recorded on the photosensitive polymer layer of a disc.

To retrieve the information stored in a hologram, shine the
reference beam onto the hologram. When it reflects off the hologram, it holds the light pattern of the image stored there.
This reconstruction beam is then send to a CMOS sensor to
recreate the original image.
Technology used in HVD

Collinear holography The laser beams are collimated. Blue-green laser reads the data encoded in the form of laser
interference.
Red laser serves the purpose of reference beam and to read the
servo info.
A layer of dichroic mirrors, between the holographic and servo
data layer reflects back the blue-green laser beam, letting only the red laser pass through it to reach the servo information.

Technology used in HVD

The concepts of collinear holographic memories are:
To increase the recording capacity, thick volume-recording media is used
The optical disk is pre-formatted with addresses and optical servo information The beam for the optical servo is utilized to provide backward compatibility with the existing CDs or DVDs
11
Structure of HVD
The Holographic Versatile Disc structure consists of the
following components:

Green writing/reading laser (532 nm) Red positioning/addressing laser (650 nm) Hologram (data) Polycarbon layer Photopolymeric layer (data-containing layer) Distance layers Dichroic layer (reflecting green light) Aluminum reflective layer (reflecting red light) Transparent base

Writing data
A simplified HVD system consists of the following main
components:

Blue or green laser (532-nm wavelength in the test system) Beam splitter/merger Mirrors Spatial light modulator (SLM) CMOS sensor Photopolymer recording medium
14
Writing data
Information is encoded into binary and is stored in the SLM. These data are turned into ones and zeroes represented as opaque or
translucent areas on a page.
When the information beam passes through the SLM, portions of the
light are blocked by the opaque areas of the page, and portions pass through the translucent areas.
When the reference beam and the information beam rejoin on the same
axis, they create a pattern of light interference - the holography data.
This interference pattern is stored in the photopolymer area of the disc
as a hologram.

Hologram
Reading data
To read, weve to retrieve the light pattern stored in the

18
hologram. Laser is projected onto the hologram a light beam that is identical to the reference beam . The hologram diffracts this beam according to the specific pattern of light interference its storing. The resulting light recreates the image of the page data that established the light-interference pattern Reconstruction beam. The reconstruction beam - bounces back off the disc, it travels to the CMOS sensor. The CMOS sensor then reproduces the page data.

Advantages, disadvantages and applications of HVD

Advantages :
More storage Reads and writes quickly Price, expected to be slashed down
Disadvantages :
Initial price of the player and disc are high. Price and storage not confirmed, still in R&D.
20
Advantages, disadvantages and applications of HVD

Applications:
Used for storing large amounts of data most likely for
large companies. Could be the most efficient way to backup information in the near future.
21
Facts
It has been estimated that the books in the U.S. Library of
Congress, the largest library in the world , could be stored on six HVDs. Google Earth - can be stored on two HVDs.
The pictures of every landmass on Earth - like the ones shown in

With MPEG4 ASP encoding, a HVD can hold anywhere between
4,600-11,900 hours of video, which is enough for non-stop playing for a year.
22
Future aspects
Have tremendous implications in the commercial, industrial
and d-Cinema realms.

Will find wide use for backing up and archiving the media
libraries, including the one at the Hollywood studios
23
Conclusion
Materialized with the evolution of the collinear holography
technology
Stores far more data than, what a DVD can.
Prototype HVD has a capacity of 3.9 TB and a transfer rate of
1 Gbps.
Hence, 1 HVD = 830 DVDs = 160 Blu-Ray discs
