Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical imaging, and in particular provides a snapshot type visible light field-infrared spectrum high-resolution imager. Background Art

[0002] Light field spectral imaging technology organically integrates light field imaging technology with spectral imaging technology to achieve full optical information of the target (seven-dimensional light field data ( x , y , z , θ , φ , λ , t ) detection and reconstruction has broad application space in biomedicine, target recognition, particle image velocimetry and environmental monitoring.

[0003] At present, light field spectral imaging technology mainly includes multi-angle scanning of the target, using a detector array to detect all-optical information, or introducing a light field imaging structure into an imaging spectrometer, and is mainly used in the visible light band. Among them, the technology of realizing all-optical information detection by multi-angle scanning of the target, such as the Ben-Gurion University of Israel in 2016, which scanned the liquid crystal compression hyperspectral imaging system in the horizontal plane along the direction perpendicular to the optical axis of the system, collected hyperspectral images at different positions with equal spacing to reconstruct the target's four-dimensional stereoscopic imaging spectrum. This type of technology has a long scanning time and poor stability due to its multi-angle scanning, and cannot detect rapidly changing targets in real time. The technology of realizing all-optical information detection by using multiple detectors and detector arrays, such as the multi-spectral light field imaging technology based on a multi-camera array proposed by Nanjing University in 2017, uses multiple cameras with different bandwidth filters to capture multi-spectral light field information. This type of technology is based on a detector array, resulting in a complex structure, data redundancy, high cost, and difficulty in lightweighting. In 2017, the University of Science and Technology of China proposed a snapshot hyperspectral light field imager that uses two cameras to obtain part of the light field information. The system consists of a light field camera and a coded aperture snapshot spectral imager (CASSI). The two branches are co-located through a beam splitter and calibrated in space, angle, and spectral dimensions. The RGB light field obtained by the light field camera contains the angle information of the scene, and the compressed measurement obtained by the coded aperture snapshot spectral imager encodes the hyperspectral information of the scene. The two complement each other to obtain a 5D hyperspectral light field with high angular resolution and spectral resolution. Although this system realizes snapshot detection of light field spectral imaging information, it cannot take into account the advantages of infrared detection. The technology of introducing light field imaging structure into imaging spectrometers, such as Harbin Institute of Technology in 2018, introduced the focused light field imaging structure into the snapshot hyperspectral imaging Fourier transform spectrometer, using a single detector to obtain the seven-dimensional light information of the target. Although this type of technology avoids the problems of the above two types of technologies, it is difficult to realize infrared band detection due to technical limitations. In addition, this type of technology collects multiple information dimensions on a single detector, and its back-end decoupling processing is difficult due to the existence of system errors.

[0004] In the existing scheme, the target's light field information is detected by scanning at multiple angles. Since the detection process requires scanning, the detection real-time performance is low and the stability cannot be well guaranteed. For the technology of using detector arrays to detect light field information, the cost is high due to the large number of detectors, and it is difficult to achieve lightweight design. This type of system is sensitive to environmental changes, the amount of data collected is also large, and the amount of calculation in the post-processing process is huge. As for the method of introducing light field imaging technology into snapshot spectral imaging technology, its technical principle is limited, the main working band is the visible light band, and the subsequent data processing is relatively complex.
