Abstract

We describe a technique for noncontact velocity measurement by using double-exposure speckle-pattern techniques with optical signal processing. The two speckle patterns are recorded on a ferroelectric liquid-crystal (FLC) spatial light modulator (SLM), which is a bistable optically addressed SLM, and the composite pattern is then analyzed by an optical system similar to a joint transform correlator, in which another FLC-SLM and a position-sensitive detector are used. We show that the performance of the system can be significantly improved by adjusting the time between exposures using a real-time feedback system that is based on the position of the correlation spot in the output plane.
