In this letter, we propose a novel computational integral imaging reconstruction technique based on a lenslet array model. The proposed technique provides improvement of viewing images by extracting multiple pixels from elemental images according to ray tracing based on the lenslet array model. To show the feasibility of the proposed technique, we analyze it according to ray optics and present the experimental results.

In this paper, we propose novel computational reconstruction technique of three-dimensional objects in integral imaging by use of a lenslet array. We applied our technique to two different integral imaging systems according the distance between lenslet array and elemental image plane. Experimental results are presented and discussed as well.

A photonic integrated interferometric imaging system possesses the characteristics of small-scale, low weight, low power consumption, and better image quality. It has potential application for replacing conventional large space telescopes. In this paper, the principle of photonic integrated interferometric imaging is investigated. A novel lenslet array arrangement and lenslet pairing approach are proposed, which are helpful in improving spatial frequency coverage. For the novel lenslet array arrangement, two short interference arms were evenly distributed between two adjacent long interference arms. Each lenslet in the array would be paired twice through the novel lenslet pairing approach. Moreover, the image reconstruction model for optical interferometric imaging based on compressed sensing was established. Image simulation results show that the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of the reconstructed image based on compressive sensing is about 10 dB higher than that of the direct restored image. Meanwhile, the normalized mean square error (NMSE) of the direct restored image is approximately 0.38 higher than that of the reconstructed image. Structural similarity index measure (SSIM) of the reconstructed image based on compressed sensing is about 0.33 higher than that of the direct restored image. The increased spatial frequency coverage and image reconstruction approach jointly contribute to better image quality of the photonic integrated interferometric imaging system.

본 논문에서는 3차원 집적 영상 기술에서 렌즈배열 모델을 적용하여 컴퓨터적으로 해상도가 개선된 3차원 영상을 재생하는 방법을 제안하고, 그 성능을 분석한다. 기존의 보고된 컴퓨터 적 시점 재생 방법은 핀홀 배열 모델에 기초하지만, 제안하는 방법은 렌즈 배열 모델을 적용하기 때문에 동일한 요소영상에서 다수의 픽셀을 추출하여 높은 해상도를 얻을 수 있다. 제안한 방법의 유용함을 보이기 위해 기초적인 실험을 수행하고 그 결과를 보고한다.

Computational integral imaging(CII) has the advantage of generating the volumetric information of the 3D scene without optical devices. However, the reconstruction process of CII requires increasingly larger sizes of reconstructed images and then the computational cost increases as the distance between the lenslet array and the reconstructed output plane increases. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose a novel CII method using a depth conversion technique. The proposed method can move a far 3D object near the lenslet array and reduce the computational cost dramatically. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiment and its results are presented.

Computational integral imaging (CII) is a new method for 3D imaging and visualization. However, it suffers from seriously poor image quality of the reconstructed image as the reconstructed image plane increases. In this paper, to overcome this problem, we propose a CII method based on a smart pixel mapping (SPM) technique for partially occluded 3D object recognition, in which the object to be recognized is located at far distance from the lenslet array. In the SPM-based CII, the use of SPM moves a far 3D object toward the near lenslet array and then improves the image quality of the reconstructed image. To show the usefulness of the proposed method, we carry out some experiments for occluded objects and present the experimental results.

In this paper, a new detection algorithm was proposed for finding the position of lenslet array spot pattern used to acquire laser wavefront. Based on the analysis of the required signal processing characteristics, we categorized into and designed four main signal processing functions. The proposed was designed in order to have robust feature against a variation of geometrical form of the spot and also implemented to have semi-automatic thresholding capability based on CCD noise analysis. For performance evaluation, we made qualitative and quantitative comparisons with Carvalho's algorithm which has been published in recent. In the given experimental spot images, the proposed could detect the spots which has 1/3 times lower than the least S/N of which Carvalho's can detect and could reach to a detection precision of 0.1 pixel at the S/N. In functional aspect, the proposed could separate all valid spots locally. From these results, the proposed could have a superior precision of location detection of spot pattern in wider S/N range.

We propose a computational reconstruction technique in large-depth integral imaging where the elemental images have information of three-dimensional objects through real and virtual image fields. In the proposed technique, we reconstruct full volume information from the elemental images through both real and virtual image fields. Here, we use uniform mappings of elemental images with the size of the lenslet regardless of the distance between the lenslet array and reconstruction image plane. To show the feasibility of the proposed reconstruction technique, we perform preliminary experiments and present experimental results.

본 논문에서는 요소 영상간의 상관관계를 위상필터를 이용하여 구하고 집적 영상 기술에서 이를 활용하여 깊이정보를 추출하는 시스템을 제안한다. 집적 영상 기술은 수동 광원을 사용하여 렌즈 배열을 통해 3차원 물체의 광선정보를 2차원 영상 획득 장치로 기록하고 이를 동일한 렌즈 배열을 통해 3차원 영상을 디스플레이 하는 3차원 영상 시스템 기술이다. 렌즈 배열을 통해 획득된 2차원 영상들은 서로 다른 원근감을 가지는 요소 영상이다. 이 영상들과 물체와의 상관관계를 구하여 깊이정보를 추출할 수 있다. 그리고 요소 영상으로 컴퓨터 재생을 하여 다시 필터를 이용한 상관관계를 구하게 되면 더욱 정확한 깊이정보를 얻을 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 기술을 검증하기 위해 광학적 실험을 수행하고 상관관계의 지표로써 Peak Side lobe Ratio (PSR)을 구하였다.
