Abstract

Proposed and demonstrated is the coded access optical sensor (CAOS) line camera, a one-dimensional or line version of the two-dimensional (2D) digital-micromirror-device (DMD)-based CAOS camera. The proposed line camera design includes a precise dual-axis mirror scanning galvo system incorporating feedback control that eliminates the need for mechanical motion of either the camera or the target. CAOS line scan imaging experiments using a white light source with two test targets are conducted and compared with non-scan 2D CAOS imaging. Specifically, a 2D DMD operated as both a full-frame and a line modulator is used to demonstrate both full-frame (${127} \times {45}$ pixels) and line (127 pixels) scan CAOS imaging. Also demonstrated is an increase in field of view (FOV) of the camera unit using the galvo system with FOV increased by factors of 2.87 and 1.67 in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. In addition, proposed for future implementation is a CAOS line camera design that allows analog and hybrid analog–digital time-frequency CAOS-mode irradiance coding for realizing improved inter-pixel cross talk. The CAOS line camera versus a 2D image sensor camera is suited for broad-spectrum large area/FOV imaging applications where high linear dynamic range and low contrast recovery are critical challenges, such as in active illumination inspection of archeological and art works and industrial machine parts.
