Abstract: A method and system deblurs images acquired of a scene by a camera. A light field acquired of a scene is modulated temporally according to a sequence of ons and offs. An optimal coding pattern is selected. The modulated light field is integrated by a sensor of a camera during an exposure time to generate an encoded input image. The encoded input image is decoded according to a pseudo-inverse of a smearing matrix to produce a decoded output image having a reduced blur.

Abstract: An identification tag is formed with a single microcircuit. The microcircuit includes an optical transceiver, a radio transceiver, both connected to a memory storing an identification code. At least one of the transceivers operates in receive mode, and at least one of the transceivers operates in transmit mode. The identification code is transmitted by the transceiver operating in the transmit mode in response to receiving a predetermined signal by the transceiver operating in the receive mode.

Abstract: In a rear projection television, cathode ray tubes are mounted inside an enclosure so that each cathode ray tube projects output images onto a rear projection screen using a corresponding electron beam. Calibration images are generated for each cathode ray tube. A camera, also mounted inside the enclosure, acquires an input image of each calibration image. A distortion in each input image is measured, and the output images of the cathode ray tubes are corrected by adjusting the signals controlling the corresponding electron beams according to the distortion.

Abstract: A method renders a mesh constructed of polygons representing a graphics model one at the time to accentuate geometric features of the mesh. At least one additional polygon is generated at each edge of each polygon of the mesh. Each additional polygon has a predetermined orientation, size, and color. The predetermined orientation of the generated polygons is 180° with respect to the polygon if the polygon is a back-facing polygon to accentuate silhouettes. The predetermined orientation of the generated polygon is a first threshold angle with respect to the polygon if the polygon is a front-facing polygon to accentuate ridges, and the predetermined orientation of the generated polygon is a second threshold angle with respect to the polygon if the polygon is a front-facing polygon to accentuate valleys.

Abstract: A time-of-flight camera images an object around a corner or through a diffuser. In the case of imaging around a corner, light from a hidden target object reflects off a diffuse surface and travels to the camera. Points on the diffuse surface function as a virtual sensors. In the case of imaging through a diffuser, light from the target object is transmitted through a diffusive media and travels to the camera. Points on a surface of the diffuse media that is visible to the camera function as virtual sensors. In both cases, a computer represents phase and intensity measurements taken by the camera as a system of linear equations and solves a linear inverse problem to (i) recover an image of the target object; or (ii) to compute a 3D position for each point in a set of points on an exterior surface of the target object.

Abstract: In exemplary implementations of this invention, light from a light field projector is transmitted through an angle-expanding screen to create a glasses-free, 3D display. The display can be horizontal-only parallax or full parallax. In the former case, a vertical diffuser may positioned in the optical stack. The angle-expanding screen may comprise two planar arrays of optical elements (e.g., lenslets or lenticules) separated from each other by the sum of their focal distances. Alternatively, a light field projector may project light rays through a focusing lens onto a diffuse, transmissive screen. In this alternative approach, the light field projector may comprise two spatial light modulators (SLMs). A focused image of the first SLM, and a slightly blurred image of the second SLM, are optically combined on the diffuser, creating a combined image that has a higher spatial resolution and a higher dynamic range than either of two SLMs.
