Digital Imaging Trends in Consumer Astronomical Photography

Since the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope there has been widespread popular interest in astronomical imaging. A further series of events, most notably the recent Deep Impact mission have served to fuel further interest in this. In parallel with this there have been a number of events and trends that have increased interest in astronomical photography outside of professional astronomy. Adva...

Computational Photography: Epsilon to Coded Photography

Computational photography combines plentiful computing, digital sensors, modern optics, actuators, and smart lights to escape the limitations of traditional cameras, enables novel imaging applications and simplifies many computer vision tasks. However, a majority of current Computational photography methods involves taking multiple sequential photos by changing scene parameters and fusing the p...

Computational Photography

Computational photography is an emergent multidisciplinary field that combines topics in optics, computer graphics, image and signal processing. The objective is usually the development of new algorithms or systems to capture images overcoming the limitations of conventional techniques. Images are not simply captured as 2D projections of a scene, they are rather coded before reaching the sensor...

Computational Photography

The digital camera has brought a revolutionary shift in the nature of photography, sweeping aside more than 150 years of technology based on the weird and wonderful photochemistry of silver halide crystals. Curiously, though, the camera itself has come through this transformation with remarkably little change. A digital camera has a silicon sensor where the film used to go, and there’s a new di...
