Extended Depth-of-Field of a Miniature Optical Endoscope Using Wavefront Coding
Applied Sciences, 2020 Endoscopic imaging is an indispensable tool for visual inspection of surfaces in hard-to-access places. The conventional optical endoscope only enables imaging the regions that lie close to the focal plane, and therefore improving the depth of field (DOF)
