Joint digital-optical design of imaging systems for grayscale objects

Optical Design and Engineering III
The resulting optical systems have lower F # and greater depth-of-field than systems that do not exploit spectral correlations. ...
We describe how to exploit such correlation during the design of electro-optical imaging systems to achieve greater imaging performance and lower optical component cost. ...

pre-print
The phase mask creates a depth-dependent point spread function, allowing us to recover sharp image texture and stereo correspondence over a significantly extended depth of field (EDOF) than conventional ...
Inspired by the extended depth of field cameras, we propose a novel end-to-end learning-based technique to overcome this limitation, by introducing a phase mask at the aperture plane of the cameras in ...

Pupil-phase optimization for extended-focus, aberration-corrected imaging systems
2004
Advanced Signal Processing Algorithms, Architectures, and Implementations XIV
The insertion of a suitably designed phase plate in the pupil of an imaging system makes it possible to encode the depth dimension of an extended three-dimensional scene by means of an approximately shift-invariant ...
The so-encoded image can then be deblurred digitally by standard image recovery algorithms to recoup the depth dependent detail of the original scene. ...

Distributed wavefront coding for wide angle imaging system

Current Developments in Lens Design and Optical Engineering XII; and Advances in Thin Film Coatings VII
The emerging paradigm of imaging systems, known as wavefront coding, which employs joint optimization of both the optical system and the digital post-processing system, has not only increased the degrees ...
While previous research on wavefront coding was mainly targeted at imaging systems having a small or modest field of view (FOV), we present a preliminary study on wavefront coding applied to panoramic ...
The next step to apply wavefront coding to a panoramic imager is to identify how much of each aberration the system can tolerate and use this information during the optimization. ...
