  • Publication number: 20160345828
    Abstract: A system for multi-scale closed-loop eye tracking to compensate for translation and rotation motion while imaging in vivo a surface area of an internal structure of an eye of a subject includes a narrow field imaging device optically coupled to an optical path to receive light reflected from the surface area of the structure of the eye. A wide field camera is optically coupled to the optical path by a beam splitter disposed in the optical path. A tracking mirror is disposed in the optical path between the beam splitter and the structure of the eye. A control process algorithm actively compensates substantially in real time for both translational and rotational movements of the eye. A system where a torsional correction device causes a rotating movement of a subject's head and a method for multi-scale closed-loop eye tracking are also described.

  • Publication number: 20160317031
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for imaging multiple retinal structures and montaging of multiple retinal images are provided. The method involves cross-correlating images from different imaging channels to compensate for intra-frame distortion due to retinal movement during image acquisition, and conducting a second cross-correlation to filter out any motion artifacts in the images. The resultant images are combined to generate a composite image. The method also involves controlling light directed on the retina spatially and temporally.

  • Patent number: 9485383
    Abstract: System, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with instructions for imaging an object. Dividing raw data into forward scan data and backward scan data. Reversing the order of the backward scan data to produce inverted backward scan data. Determining an offset value that is associated with a maximum value of a first function based on the forward scan data and the inverted backward scan data. The forward scan data is shifted by the offset value relative to the inverted backward scan data. Producing a first image of the object that comprises the forward scan data interlaced with the inverted backward scan data. The forward scan data is shifted by the offset value relative to the inverted backward scan data.
