Compact Spatial Heterodyne Interferometer
Non-Confidential Summary
Background:
For applications where high-resolution spectral analysis is required, spatial heterodyne interferometers (SHIs) can be used for obtaining near sub-angstrom spectral resolution. This capability finds use in fields such as atmospheric sciences and biomedical imaging. A
In Vivo Detection of Eosinophils
In Vivo Detection of Eosinophils
Non-Confidential Summary
Background: Eosinophilic related disorders are an emerging class of conditions in the medical field. These disorders are typically characterized by a migration of eosinophilic cells from the bone marrow to other body tissues where they become the source for various types of diseases. Currently, there are no in vivo methods available for detecting foreign eosinophils in body tissues. Biopsies are normally taken to perform such screenings. Eosinophilic cells appear very simil
Computational Photographic System for Depth Resolution Imaging
Background: 3D display technology is becoming increasingly important in consumer markets. With the ever-growing interest for 3D technology appearing in a larger variety of media as well as in technologies such as machine vision, the need for capturing quality 3D images is growing. Many cameras made for capturing 3D use two cameras, spatially separated, to obtain a 3D perspective. These systems unfortunately suffer from the disadvantages of being more expensive and cumbersome. Attempts have been made at adapting single cameras to capture 3D by using computational photography and advance
