A new focal-plane three-dimensional (3D) imaging method based on temporal ghost imaging is proposed and demonstrated. By exploiting the advantages of temporal ghost imaging, this method enables slow integrating cameras have an ability of 3D surface imaging in the framework of sequential flood-illumination and focal-plane detection. The depth information of 3D objects is easily lost when imaging with traditional cameras, but it can be reconstructed with high-resolution by temporal correlation between received signals and reference signals. Combining with a two-dimensional (2D) projection image obtained by one single shot, a 3D image of the object can be achieved. The feasibility and performance of this focal-plane 3D imaging method have been verified through theoretical analysis and numerical experiments in this paper.

Computational ghost imaging is an imaging technique in which an object is imaged from light collected using a single-pixel detector with no spatial resolution. Recently, ghost cytometry has been proposed for a high-speed cell-classification method that involves ghost imaging and machine learning in flow cytometry. Ghost cytometry skips the reconstruction of cell images from signals and directly used signals for cell-classification because this reconstruction is what creates the bottleneck in the high-speed analysis. In this paper, we provide theoretical analysis for learning from ghost imaging without imaging.
Recently, ghost imaging has been attracting attentions because its mechanism would lead to many applications inaccessible to conventional imaging methods. However, it is challenging for high contrast and high resolution imaging, due to its low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the demand of high sampling rate in detection. To circumvent these challenges, we here propose a ghost imaging scheme that exploits Haar wavelets as illuminating patterns with a bi-frequency light projecting system and frequency-selecting single-pixel detectors. This method provides a theoretically 100% image contrast and high detection SNR, which reduces the requirement of high dynamic range of detectors, enabling high resolution ghost imaging. Moreover, it can highly reduce the sampling rate (far below Nyquist limit) for a sparse object by adaptively abandoning unnecessary patterns during the measurement. These characteristics are experimentally verified with a resolution of 512 times 512 and a sampling rate lower than 5%. A high-resolution (1000 times 1000 times 1000) 3D reconstruction of an object is also achieved from multi-angle images.
Echo-location is a broad approach to imaging and sensing that includes both man-made RADAR, LIDAR, SONAR and also animal navigation. However, full 3D information based on echo-location requires some form of scanning of the scene in order to provide the spatial location of the echo origin-points. Without this spatial information, imaging objects in 3D is a very challenging task as the inverse retrieval problem is strongly ill-posed. Here, we show that the temporal information encoded in the return echoes that are reflected multiple times within a scene is sufficient to faithfully render an image in 3D. Numerical modelling and an information theoretic perspective prove the concept and provide insight into the role of the multipath information. We experimentally demonstrate the concept by using both radio-frequency and acoustic waves for imaging individuals moving in a closed environment.
Computational temporal ghost imaging (CTGI) allows the reconstruction of a fast signal from a two dimensional detection with no temporal resolution. High speed spatial modulation is implemented to encode temporal detail of the signal into the two dimensional detection. By calculating the correlation between the modulation and the rendered image, the temporal information can be retrieved. CTGI indicates a way to detect high speed non-reproducible signal from a slow detector. Based on CTGI, we propose an innovative scheme that can increase the frame rate of a camera by resolving the temporal detail of every camera image. To achieve this, CTGI is conducted parallelly to different areas of the scene. High speed spatial multiplexed modulation is performed, constraining the continuous scene into a series of short-time-scale frames. All the modulated frames are accumulated into one image that is eventually used in the correlation retrieval process. By performing CTGI reconstruction on each area independently, the temporal detail of the whole scene can be obtained. This method can have a strong application in ultrafast imaging.
In this paper, we propose an advanced framework of ghost edge imaging, named compressed ghost edge imaging (CGEI). In the scheme, a set of structured speckle patterns with pixel shifting are illuminated on an unknown object, and the output is collected by a bucket detector without any spatial resolution. By using compressed sensing algorithm, we obtain the horizontal and vertical edge information of the unknown object with the bucket detector detection results and the known structured speckle patterns. The edge is finally constructed by the two-dimentional edge information. The experimental and numerical simulations results show that the proposed scheme has a higher quality and reduces the number of measurements, in comparison with the existed edge detection schemes based on ghost imaging.
