TL;DR: First-photon imaging is introduced, which is a computational imager that exploits spatial correlations found in real-world scenes and the physics of low-flux measurements, and recovers 3D structure and reflectivity from the first detected photon at each pixel.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Looking around the corner using transient imaging
TL;DR: It is shown that multi-path analysis using images from a timeof-flight (ToF) camera provides a tantalizing opportunity to infer about 3D geometry of not only visible but hidden parts of a scene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photon-Efficient Computational 3-D and Reflectivity Imaging With Single-Photon Detectors
TL;DR: A robust method for estimating depth and reflectivity using fixed dwell time per pixel and on the order of one detected photon per pixel averaged over the scene, which increases photon efficiency 100-fold over traditional processing and also improves, somewhat, upon first-photon imaging under a total acquisition time constraint in raster-scanned operation.

Photon-Efficient Computational 3D and Reflectivity Imaging with Single-Photon Detectors
TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial correlations present in real-world reflectivity and 3D structure are exploited to estimate depth and reflectivity using on the order of 1 detected photon per pixel averaged over the scene.

SPUMIC: Simultaneous phase unwrapping and multipath interference cancellation in time-of-flight cameras using spectral methods
TL;DR: This work proposes a framework for simultaneous phase unwrapping and multipath interference cancellation (SPUMIC) in homodyne time-of-flight (ToF) cameras and uses robust spectral estimation methods with low computational complexity to detect and estimate multipath parameters.
