Adaptive Optics for Autofocusing Eyeglasses
Imaging and Applied Optics 2017 (3D, AIO, COSI, IS, MATH, pcAOP), 2017Over 1 billion people worldwide including more than 100 million people in the United States of America alone suffer from an age-related eye condition known as presbyopia. Presbyopia is caused by a loss of focal accommodation of the crystalline lens inside the eye as the lens stiffens with age.

Aberration laser beams with autofocusing properties
Applied Optics, 2018We investigate theoretically, numerically, and experimentally a novel type of laser beam-an aberration laser beam (ALB). To generate the ALB, a diffractive optical element with a phase transmission function having an arbitrary radial dependence of power q and a periodic angular dependence of sin(mϕ) or cos(mϕ) form can be used.

Publisher Summary Fast, accurate, and reliable autofocusing is crucial to high-throughput scanning microscopy applications, where large numbers of specimens must be imaged and analyzed routinely. The objective of autofocusing is to locate the z-axis position of best image focus.

Autofocusing in digital holographic microscopy
3D Research, 2011Many applications in non-destructive testing at a microscopic level and in live cell imaging require automated focusing due to unstable environmental conditions, moving specimen or the limited depth of field of the applied optical imaging systems.

Adaptive autofocusing: a closed-loop perspective
Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 2005We present an adaptive autofocusing scheme. In this scheme, the focus measure is updated with focus tuning. To achieve this, we construct the focus measure by using image moments and develop an adaptive focus-tuning strategy to estimate the measure in closed loop.

Autofocusing optical-resolution photoacoustic endoscopy
Optics Letters, 2018Photoacoustic (PA) endoscopy has the potential to diagnose early diseases in the gastrointestinal tract. For the first time, to our knowledge, we developed an autofocusing PA endoscope (AF-PAE) for the usually irregular gastrointestinal tract imaging to solve the deterioration of transverse resolution caused by the defocus scanning of the probe.

Algorithms for compressed ISAR autofocusing
Proceedings of 2011 IEEE CIE International Conference on Radar, 2011This paper is reporting some experimental results of compressed inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) imaging. Autofocusing is applied on the sparse echoes, which consists of range alignment and phase correction as in conventional ISAR processing. Range alignment is implemented through minimizing the entropy of the average range profile, while phase ...

Autofocusing system for a photothermal microscope
Review of Scientific Instruments, 2003Photoreflectance and interferometric microscopy are rather new methods used for thermal and thermoelastic characterizations of materials at a microscopic scale. These methods make use of an intensity modulated laser beam (pump) to produce a thermal wave which is at the origin of thermal diffusion and elastic deformations.

Autofocusing region selection for computer vision
2008 9th International Conference on Signal Processing, 2008Focusing region selection is an important part in autofocusing algorithm, which directly influences the accuracy, unimodality and stability of the sharpness function curve. Two criteria for focusing region selection are presented. Then, a novel region selection method based on edge mask is proposed.

An autofocusing measurement system with a piezoelectric translator
IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics, 1997An autofocusing system that consists of a compact disc (CD) optical head and a piezoelectric translator (PZT) is developed for measuring the displacement or profile of a tested surface. The displacement or the profile of the tested surface can be obtained with varying accuracy by measuring the curve of the driving voltage to the expansion distance of ...
