Abstract: Methods, devices and systems are described that produce improved images and improved knowledge of object characteristics, and enable acquisition of two- or three-dimensional images through dynamic scattering media, such as living (moving) tissue, turbid fluids, or fog. One method for time-of-flight sensing includes illuminating the object with a laser having at least two spectrally-separated components, and simultaneously receiving at a detector: a first reference beam consisting of the first spectral component, a second reference beam consisting of the second spectral component, and an object beam. The first or the second reference beams produce a first combination of the first reference beam and the object beam with a non-overlapping spectral content with respect to a second combination of the second reference beam and the object beam. The method also includes determining a field value, an image, a phase value or a depth profile for the object based on the detected signals.

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) imaging system includes a projector configured to illuminate a scene. The 3D imaging system also includes a first camera configured to capture first data from the scene during illumination by the projector and a second camera configured to capture second data from the scene during the illumination by the projector. The 3D imaging system further includes a processor in communication with the first camera and the second camera. The processor is configured to process the first data and the second data to generate a 3D image or a 3D video.

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) imaging system includes a mobile device that has a display screen configured to display a series of patterns onto an object that is to be imaged. The mobile device also includes a front-facing camera configured to capture reflections of the series of patterns off of the object. The system also includes a controller that is configured to control a timing of the series of patterns that appear on the display screen and activation of the front-facing camera in relation to the appearance of the series of patterns.

Abstract: A system configured to generate images includes one or more narrowband electromagnetic sources configured to emit a first radiation and a second radiation. The system also includes a detector configured to detect first reflected radiation off of an object and second reflected radiation off of the object, where the first reflected radiation results from the first radiation and the second reflected radiation results from the second radiation. The system further includes a processor operatively coupled to the detector and configured to generate an image of the object based at least in part on a first amplitude of the first reflected radiation and a second amplitude of the second reflected radiation. The processor is also configured to determine a depth profile of the object based at least in part on the first reflected radiation and the second reflected radiation detected by the detector.

Abstract: An optical 3-D sensor for very fast, highly resolved and dense capture of the surface shape of objects in 3-D space. One image or a plurality of images recorded at the same time in a single shot method suffice for the recording. Using this, it is possible, as a matter of principle, to record 3-D data with the frame rate of the employed cameras, i.e. to build a 3-D video camera. The optical 3-D sensor has a projector projecting a line pattern onto the object, and K cameras, which each record an image of the object illuminated by the projector. The line pattern contains lines in a number of R directions and the K cameras are disposed to span up to K×R triangulation sensors. The triangulation sensors are coupled by a control and evaluation unit by way of the common line pattern.
