چکیده

Light transport has been analyzed extensively, in both the primal domain and the frequency domain; the latter provides intuition of effects introduced by free space propagation and by optical elements, and allows for optimal designs of computational cameras for tailored, efficient information capture. Here, we relax the common assumption that the speed of light is infinite and analyze free space propagation in the frequency domain considering spatial, temporal, and angular light variation. Using this analysis, we derive analytic expressions for crossdimensional information transfer and show how this can be exploited for designing a new, time-resolved bare sensor imaging system.

Imaging in scattering media using correlation image sensors and sparse convolutional coding.

Correlation image sensors have recently become popular low-cost devices for time-of-flight, or range cameras. They usually operate under the assumption of a single light path contributing to each pixel. We show that a more thorough analysis of the sensor data from correlation sensors can be used can be used to analyze the light transport in much more complex environments, including applications...

Engineering of core/shell nanoparticles surface plasmon for increasing of light penetration depth in tissue (modeling and analysis)

Objectives: In this article, a new procedure for increasing the light penetration depth in a tissue is studied and simulated. It has been reported that the most important problem in biomedical optical imaging relates to the light penetration depth, and so this makes a dramatic restriction on its applications. In the optical imaging method, the detection of the backscattered pho...

A Computational Model of a Single-Photon Avalanche Diode Sensor for Transient Imaging

Single-Photon Avalanche Diodes (SPAD) are affordable photodetectors, capable to collect extremely fast low-energy events, due to their single-photon sensibility. This makes them very suitable for time-of-flight-based range imaging systems, allowing to reduce costs and power requirements, without sacrifizing much temporal resolution. In this work we describe a computational model to simulate the...
