    Abstract: An imaging system that is translucent can be achieved by placing an image sensor (204) at one of more edges or periphery of a translucent window (202). A small fraction of light from the outside scene scatters off imperfections (218) in the translucent window (202) and reach the peripheral image sensor (204). Based on appropriate calibration of the response of point sources (206) from the outside scene, the full scene can be reconstructed computationally from the peripherally scattered light (210, 212). The technique can be extended to color, multi-spectral, light-field, 3D, and polarization selective imaging. Applications can include surveillance, imaging for autonomous agents, microscopy, etc.

    Abstract: An imaging system can include an optical fiber and a light source for providing optical stimulation to a region of interest along the optical fiber. A camera can capture emission such as fluorescence resulting from the optical stimulation. A cannula configured for implantation into a subject can be configured to direct the emission from the subject. A mating sleeve coupling the cannula to the optical fiber, and configured to support the camera, can include a dichroic mirror to allow the optical stimulation to pass from the optical fiber to the cannula and to redirect the emission from the cannula to the camera.
