Abstract
A new concept of the virtual wave front is introduced, and a principle of generating a virtual wave front by using space-time degeneracy in a scan-synchronized wavelength-shift interferometer is proposed. Results of preliminary experiments are presented to demonstrate the validity of the principle, and some applications of the virtual wave fronts are suggested
