Publication number: 20210318169Abstract: The present invention provides a scanning system including a chamber configured for receiving reflected light from an object. The chamber includes a first prism and a second prism configured for refracting the reflected light, at least one beam splitter configured for splitting the reflected light into a first beam and a second beam, a camera configured for receiving the first beam so as to provide images of the object, a condenser lens configured for condensing the second beam, and a spectrometer configured for receiving the condensed second beam and provide a spectrum analysis of the second beam. The system further includes a particular computer configured to combine the images of the object produced by the camera with the spectrum analysis produced by the spectrometer to provide a hyperspectral image.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2019Publication date: October 14, 2021Inventors: Iftach KLAPP, Or ARAD

Publication number: 20160299339Abstract: The invention is a method for providing Tunable Extended Depth of Field (TEDOF) to an optical system. The method comprises: (a) providing at least one tunable Spatial Light Modulator (SLM) in the pupil plane or in the conjugate plane of the pupil plane of the optical system; (b) building a database of masks tailored to the structure of the tunable SLMs; (c) using the optical system to grab at least two images using different masks from the database of masks; and (d) time multiplexing the wavefront profiles of the at least two images to produce a final image. Each of the profiles in the database gives a Depth of Field (DOF) lower than the DOF of the final image.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2014Publication date: October 13, 2016Inventors: Iftach KLAPP, Asi SOLODAR, Ibrahim ABDULHALIM
