Pushing the Limits of Computational ImagingComputational imaging uses unconventional optics to capture a coded image, and an appropriate algorithm to decode the captured image. This approach of manipulating images before there are recorded and processing recorded images before they are presented has three key benefits.First, it enables us to implement imaging functionalities that would be ...
