An approach to ghost imaging with a single SPAD array used simultaneously as a several-pixel "bucket" detector and an imaging camera is described. The key points of the approach are filtering data frames used for ghost-image reconstruction…

We develop and experimentally demonstrate an imaging method based on the pink noise pattern in the computational ghost imaging (CGI) system, which has a strong ability to photograph moving objects. To examine its unique ability and scope of…

We introduce the concept of self-guided imaging (SGI) as a linear analogue of self-guided quantum tomography (SGQT). We show that SGI is mathematically equivalent to single-pixel imaging (SPI). Taking inspiration from orthogonalised ghost…

Ghost imaging is the remarkable process where an image can be formed from photons that have not "seen" the object. Traditionally this phenomenon has required initially correlated but spatially separated photons, e.g., one to interact with…
