Computational imaging through scattering materials using speckle correlation
When viewed under coherent imaging conditions (e.g. laser illumination), scattering materials such as biological tissues create noise-like images known as speckle. Despite their seemingly random nature, speckle patterns have strong statistical correlation properties that are highly informative of the material producing them. These can be used to enable remarkable imaging capabilities, not possible with current state of the art, for example seeing through highly scattering layers. Unfortunately, realizing these in practical settings (tissue imaging, fluorescence microscopy) remains a challenge. Research efforts are hindered by a lack of modeling tools, resulting in an incomplete…
