Abstract
Motion blur, which results from time-averaging an image over the camera’s exposure time, is a common problem in microscopy of moving samples. Here, we demonstrate linear motion deblurring using temporally coded illumination in an LED array microscope. By illuminating moving objects with a well-designed temporal coded sequence that varies during each single camera exposure, the resulting motion blur is invertible and can be computationally removed. This scheme is implemented in an existing LED array microscope, providing benefits of being grayscale, fast, and adaptive, which leads to high-quality deblur performance and a flexible implementation with no moving parts. The proposed method is demonstrated experimentally for fast moving targets in a microfluidic environment.
