Video-rate computational super-resolution and integral imaging at longwave-infrared wavelengths
We report the first computational super-resolved, multi-camera integral
imaging at long-wave infrared (LWIR) wavelengths. A synchronized array of FLIR
Lepton cameras was assembled, and computational super-resolution and
integral-imaging reconstruction employed to generate video with light-field
imaging capabilities, such as 3D imaging and recognition of partially obscured
objects, while also providing a four-fold increase in effective pixel count.
This approach to high-resolution imaging enables a fundamental reduction in the
track length and volume of an imaging system, while also enabling use of
low-cost lens materials.Comment: Supplementary multimedia material in

Single-shot compressed ultrafast photography: a review
Compressed ultrafast photography (CUP) is a burgeoning single-shot computational imaging technique that provides an imaging speed as high as 10 trillion frames per second and a sequence depth of up to a few hundred frames. This technique synergizes compressed sensing and the streak camera technique to capture nonrepeatable ultrafast transient events with a single shot. With recent unprecedented technical developments and extensions of this methodology, it has been widely used in ultrafast optical imaging and metrology, ultrafast electron diffraction and microscopy, and information security protection. We review the basic principles of CUP, its recent advances in data acquisition and image reconstruction, its fusions with other modalities, and its unique applications in multiple research fields
