The distortions introduced into high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) images by the projector lens system are an important source of systematic error for quantitative displacement and strain determination. Using geometric phase analysis of images of perfect crystals, we measured these errors for two different transmission electron microscopes. Local magnification varies by as much as 5%, and rotation can reach 2 degrees across a typical image. Our experimental results are compared with theory, and optical pincushion and spiral distortion coefficients are determined. A method for calibrating and removing these distortions is presented that enables quantification to 0.1% strain and 0.1 degrees rotation across the whole field of view. This calibration is also critical for the accurate measurement of local lattice parameters from HRTEM images.

Background: Corneal endothelium is responsible for maintaining cornea transparency by pumping fluid out of the stroma to prevent the development of corneal edema which leads to blurring of vision.
Purpose: The study aims to investigate the corneal endothelial cell density and morphology in young myopic patients wearing disposable soft contact lenses (SLC) using a non-contact specular biomicroscope.
Methods: A cross-sectional comparative study was conducted at Qassim University's optometry clinics from February to July 2024 in 100 healthy myopic patients, including 100 eyes wearing disposable soft contact lenses and 100 eyes wearing spectacle correction as control group.
A Multi-aperture Coaxial Projector Balancing Shadow Suppression and Deblurring.
IEEE Trans Vis Comput Graph
November 2024
This paper proposes a projection system that optically removes the cast shadow in projection mapping. Specifically, we realize the large-aperture (LA) projection using a large-format Fresnel lens to suppress cast shadows by condensing the projection light from a wide viewing angle. However, the resolution and contrast of the projected results are significantly degraded by defocus blur, veiling glare, and stray light caused by the aberration of an LA Fresnel lens.

However, these methods often result in large system volumes due to the required projection multi-lens modules, high hardware costs, or limited light pattern generation capabilities that hindering measurement precision enhancement. This paper introduces an innovative approach to reconfigurable spatial light pattern projection using a single bi-axial MEMS mirror with Lissajous scanning.

Background: In the development of eye and face protection standards against biological hazards, it is important to consider that the eye and face protectors may be used in the outdoor environment, where ultraviolet (UV) exposure from the sun is much higher than indoors. Workers affected include paramedics, ambulance officers and clinical testing personnel.
Methods: Spectral transmittances (280-780 nm) were measured on eight face shields and one goggle of the types used in hospital and clinical environments, three overhead projector sheets and an occupational impact protective goggle.
This paper introduces a pixelwise calibration method designed for a structured light system utilizing a camera attached with a telecentric lens. In the calibration process, a white flat surface and a flat surface with circle dots serve as the calibration targets. After deriving the properties of the pinhole projector through a conventional camera calibration method using circle dots and determining the camera's attributes via 3D feature points estimation through iterative optimizations, the white surface calibration target was positioned at various poses and reconstructed with initial camera and projector calibration data.
