Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive medical imaging technique that uses light to capture high-resolution, cross-sectional images of biological tissues. OCT technology is based on the principle of low-coherence interferometry. A laser source emits a light wave which is divided into two light beams by a beamsplitter: one beam (i.e., the optical beam) is […]

Image Recovery or Image Reconstruction of an Imaging System

Blurring is a significant source of image degradation in an imperfect imaging system. The optical system’s point spread function (PSF) describes the measure of blur in a given imaging system and is often used in image reconstruction or image recovery algorithms. Below in example of using inverse PSF to eliminate the barcode image degradation. Barcodes are […]
