Seeing Beyond Occlusions (and other marvels of a finite lens aperture)
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a novel algorithm to reconstruct the geometry and photometry of a scene with occlusions from a collection of defocused images. The presence of a finite lens aperture allows us to recover portions of the scene that would be occluded in a pin-hole projection, thus “uncovering” the occlusion. We estimate the shape of each object (a surface, including the occluding boundaries), and its radiance (a positive function defined on the surface, including portions that are occluded by other objects).

Improving the directivity of the plasmonic sectoral horn nanoantenna using lens in its aperture
Horn antennas can result in good impedance matching between the waveguide and free space due to the gradual increase in the aperture size. In this paper, a novel plasmonic sectoral horn nanoantenna based on using lens in the aperture is proposed. It is investigated that in addition to improvement of the directivity, the reflection coefficient is also reduced using the proper lens structure. The...
متن کاملبررسی گلبادها و انتخاب مناطق کاندید برای تأسیس رصدخانه ملی ایران
The site selection procedure for optical observatories housing a telescope with a sizeable aperture is described. The theory of seeing is briefly introduced and a special type of seeing monitor that is widely used for seeing measurements is discussed. The results of the meteorological studies mainly based on the wind-rose diagrams are presented. These are done for 31 preliminary selected cand...
متن کامل3D Reconstruction from Finite-Aperture Lenses
In this report we investigate the problem of reconstructing 3D scene geometry from images acquired from a stationary camera with a controllable finite-aperture lens. We review the relevant literature in computer vision and optics, present some new insights into the problem [21], and suggest directions for future research.
متن کاملImaging capabilities of hypertelescopes with a pair of micro-lens arrays
We verify the imaging performance of hypertelescopes on the sky, using a new scheme for pupil densification. To avoid seeing limitations, we used a miniature version with a 10 cm aperture containing 78 sub-apertures of 1 mm size, arrayed periodically as a square grid. The pupil densification is achieved with a pair of micro-lens arrays, where each pair of facing lenses behaves like a tiny demag...
متن کاملAn improved low-optical-power variable focus lens with a large aperture.
We report an improved method of fabricating a variable focus lens in which an in-plane pretension force is applied to a membrane. This method realized a lens with a large optical aperture and high performance in a low-optical-power region. The method was verified by comparing membranes in a simulation using the finite element method. A prototype with a 26 mm-diameter aperture was fabricated, an...
