Abstract

A survey of the theory and practice of light field imaging emphasizes the devices researchers in computer graphics and computer vision have built to capture light fields photographically and the techniques they have developed to compute novel images from them.

Hybrid light field imaging for improved spatial resolution and depth range

Light field imaging involves capturing both angular and spatial distribution of light; it enables new capabilities, such as post-capture digital refocusing, camera aperture adjustment, perspective shift, and depth estimation. Micro-lens array (MLA)-...
Confocal non-line-of-sight imaging
SIGGRAPH '18: ACM SIGGRAPH 2018 Talks

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging aims at recovering the shape of objects hidden outside the direct line of sight of a camera. In this work, we report on a new approach for acquiring time-resolved measurements that are suitable for NLOS imaging. The ...
Ultra-fast Lensless Computational Imaging through 5D Frequency Analysis of Time-resolved Light Transport

Light transport has been analyzed extensively, in both the primal domain and the frequency domain. Frequency analyses often provide intuition regarding effects introduced by light propagation and interaction with optical elements; such analyses ...
