Journal ArticleDOI
Foveated, wide field-of-view imaging system using a liquid crystal spatial light modulator.
TL;DR: Foveated imaging refers to the variation in spatial resolution across the image caused by using the SLM in this application, and it is useful in reducing bandwidth requirements for data transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Foveated imaging demonstration.
TL;DR: A wide field-of-view (FOV), theoretically diffraction-limited imaging system is demonstrated using a single positive lens, a reflective liquid crystal spatial light modulator (SLM), a turning mirror and a CCD camera.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive optical zoom
David V. Wick,Ty Martinez +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, active elements such as liquid crystal spatial light modulators or deformable mirrors are incorporated into the optical design to eliminate the need to change the spacing between lenses and create an imaging system with variable optical magnification that has no macroscopic moving parts.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Liquid crystal based active optics
Brett E. Bagwell,David V. Wick,Robert G. Batchko,Justin D. Mansell,Ty Martinez,Sergio R. Restaino,Don M. Payne,Jamie Harriman,Steve Serati,Gary Sharp,Jim Schwiegerling +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present progress at Sandia National Laboratories in developing foveated imaging, active optical (aka nonmechanical) zoom, and enhanced multispectral imaging systems using liquid crystal devices.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Active multimodal control of a floppy telescope structure
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed using tiny MEMS-based inertial reference sensors to measure the structural dynamics, and, using an appropriate model and coordinate transformations, correct in real-time the tip/tilt, focus, and possibly higher order errors of the optical system aberrations.
