DiffuserCam: Lensless Single-exposure 3D ImagingMS60

This talk will describe new microscopes that use computational imaging – the joint design of optical systems and inverse algorithms - to enable 3D imaging from a single-shot with a lensless camera consisting of only a scattering element (diffuser) placed in front of a 2D image sensor. Our reconstruction algorithms are based on large-scale nonlinear non-convex optimization with sparsity-based regularizers similar to compressed sensing.
