Intrinsic parameter-free calibration of FPP using a ray phase mapping model.

This Letter presents a ray phase mapping model (RPM) for fringe projection profilometry (FPP) that avoids calibrating intrinsic parameters. The novelty of the RPM, to the best of our knowledge, is the ability to characterize the imaging system with independent rays for each pixel, and to associate the rays with the projected phase in the illumination field for efficient 3D mapping, which avoids complex imaging-specific modeling about lens layout and distortion. Two loss functions are constructed to flexibly optimize camera ray parameters and mapping coefficients, respectively.

3D imaging through a highly heterogeneous double-composite random medium by common-path phase-shift digital holography.

A method is proposed for 3D imaging through a highly heterogeneous double-composite random medium made of a thick mildly inhomogeneous medium followed by a thin strongly scattering layer. To realize the immunity to the heterogeneous random medium, a system of common-path phase-shift digital holography is designed in such a manner that the wavefront distortion caused by the first inhomogeneous medium is canceled out by the common-path geometry, and the influence of the random phase introduced by the second scattering layer is removed by the intensity-based recording of the digital hologram on the thin scattering layer. The validity of the method was confirmed by experiments.

Optimization of the holographic wavefront sensor for open-loop adaptive optics under realistic turbulence. Part I: simulations.

The modal holographic wavefront sensor enables fast measurement of individual aberration modes without the need for time-consuming calculations. However, the measurement accuracy suffers greatly from intermodal crosstalk, caused when the wavefront contains more aberrations than the one to be measured. In this paper, we present sensor optimization to minimize this effect and show the improvement when using Karhunen-Lòeve instead of Zernike modes as the basis.

Single-pixel scatter-plate microscopy.

Based on the optical memory effect of scattered light, we developed a new single-pixel camera concept. The retrieved images contain both 3D and spectral information about the sample. A spatial light modulator (SLM) generates a random intensity modulation.

Scatter-plate microscopy with spatially coherent illumination and temporal scatter modulation.

Scatter-plate microscopy (SPM) is a lensless imaging technique for high-resolution imaging through scattering media. So far, the method was demonstrated for spatially incoherent illumination and static scattering media. In this publication, we demonstrate that these restrictions are not necessary.
