Noninvasive imaging of two isolated objects through a thin scattering medium beyond the 3D optical memory effect

Abstract

A speckle image formed by scattering lights can be decoded by recently invented techniques, owing to the optical memory effect, thereby enabling the observation of a hidden object behind a thin scattering medium. However, the range of three-dimensional OME is typically small; therefore, both the field of view and depth of field are limited. We propose a method that can significantly and simultaneously improve both values for a specific scenario, where one object moves around the other position-fixed object. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through a set of experiments.
