Holographic interferometry is an advanced optical measurement technique that uses the interference patterns created by laser light to analyze and visualize changes in surface topography or deformations in an object. By recording a hologram of the object's surface and later illuminating it with coherent light, any changes can be detected as variations in the interference pattern, enabling precise measurement of displacement, strain, and stress.
congrats on reading the definition of holographic interferometry. now let's actually learn it.
