INTRODUCTION Polarization describes the path along which light's electric field vector
oscillates. An essential quality of electromagnetic radiation, polarization is often omitted in its …

Deflectometry as a technique to assess reflective surfaces has now existed for some 40
years. Its different aspects and variations have been studied in multiple theses and research …

This review focuses on the imaging applications of metasurfaces. These optical elements
provide a unique platform to control light; not only do they have a reduced size and …

The manipulation and characterization of light polarization states are essential for many
applications in quantum communication and computing, spectroscopy, bioinspired …

Polarization is a degree of freedom of light carrying important information that is usually
absent in intensity and spectral content. Imaging polarimetry is the process of determining …

Nature has a large repertoire of animals that take advantage of naturally abundant
polarization phenomena. Among them, the mantis shrimp possesses one of the most …

Metasurfaces—subwavelength arrays of phase-shifting elements—present new possibilities
for polarization optics and polarimetry. In particular, a periodic, polarization-sensitive …

Light has many properties that vision sensors can passively measure. Colour-band
separated wavelength and intensity are arguably the most commonly used for monocular 6D …

Polarized structured light is an important method to measure shiny surface. In this paper, a
type of structured light encoded by polarized light is proposed. A coding strategy based on …

Learning-based methods to solve dense 3D vision problems typically train on 3D sensor
data. The respectively used principle of measuring distances provides advantages and …
