LENSLESS COMPRESSIVE IMAGE ACQUISITION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A compressive image acquisition method comprising the steps of:
- selectively operating a shutter assembly having an array of individual shutter elements according to a basis;
detecting light transmitted through the operated shutter assembly through the effect of a single detection element; and
generating a compressive measurement of the detected light.

Abstract
Systems, structures, devices and methods for lensless compressive image acquisition are disclosed herein with which images may be obtained from a single detection element while performing fewer times than a number of pixels associated with the image. Advantageously such systems, structures, devices and methods may be adapted to acquiring images at wavelengths that are difficult or impossible with contemporary CCD or CMOS imagers.

13. A lensless compressive image acquisition apparatus comprising:
-
a shutter assembly having an array of individual shutter elements, each individual element selectively operable to allow the passage of light therethrough; and a first detector element, positioned a distance from the shutter assembly for detecting light passing through the shutter assembly; and a controller for producing compressive measurements of the detected light. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
