Abstract

Just around the corner… Unscrambling the image reflected from a scattering surface is a real challenge, with numerous potential applications along the lines of seeing past obstructions. Two methods exist to tackle this problem: In one a coherence property of light is used to recover the image from apparently random reflected intensity data, while the other uses the time-of-flight information of the photons to triangulate the object. The authors combine these approaches, implementing coherent control of the input laser beam for the time-of-flight reconstruction, and preserving the advantages of both techniques.
