Abstract: When the optical system is illuminated with an illumination light flux emitted from one extant input image point, an interference image generated by superimposing an extant output light flux output from the optical system and a reference light flux coherent with the extant output light flux is imaged to acquire interference image data, and thus to acquire measured phase distribution, and this acquisition operation is applied to each extant input image point. Thus, each measured phase distribution is expanded by expanding functions ?n(u, v) having coordinates (u, v) on a phase defining plane as a variable to be represented as a sum with coefficients ?n{Ajn·?n(u, v)}. When the optical system is illuminated with a virtual illumination light flux, a phase ?(u, v) of a virtual output light flux is determined by performing interpolation calculation based on coordinates of a virtual light emitting point.

Abstract: When an optical system is illuminated with illumination light fluxes emitted from respective input image points, an interference image generated by superimposing output light fluxes output from the optical system and a reference light flux coherent with the output light fluxes is imaged to acquire interference image data collectively including information of an interference image about all input image points. Diffractive optical light propagation simulation is performed to acquire a phase distribution associated with only light emitted from a single input image point at a position where reconstructed light fluxes to the respective output light fluxes are separated into each light flux. In each input image point, this simulation is performed to acquire a phase distribution on an exit pupil plane.

Abstract: A vehicle driving assistance apparatus includes a coherent light source, a road surface projection optical system, a road surface wet information retention section, and a control circuit. The road surface projection optical system scans a light source beam emitted from the coherent light source to output a projection beam, and thereby project the light pattern on the road surface around the own vehicle, the light source beam being light. The control circuit is configured to stop the output of the projection beam during a period in which the road surface wet information retention section retains information indicating that the road surface around the own vehicle is wet. The projection beam enters the road surface around the own vehicle at a shallow angle, and projects the light pattern toward a road surface near a boundary of a traveling lane where the own vehicle is traveling.
