The paper sets out to show that in certain circumstances interferometric comparison can be made between two nearly identical shapes, by superimposing the hologram reconstruction of one of them on to the real surface of the other. The method has been applied to the comparison of cylinder bores, resulting in a contour map of the shape difference being derived.
