Millimeter-scale embedded sensing systems have unique advantages over larger devices as they are able to capture, analyze, store, and transmit data at the source while being unobtrusive and covert. However, area-constrained systems pose…
Past millimeter-wave galaxy surveys have primarily probed the brightest starburst galaxies only and suffered heavily from confusion. The interpretation of existing surveys has also been hindered by the lack of reliable redshift indicators…
Submillimeter cameras now have up to $10^4$ pixels (SCUBA 2). The proposed CCAT 25-meter submillimeter telescope will feature a 1 degree field-of-view. Populating the focal plane at 350 microns would require more than $10^6$ photon-noise…
Community access to deep (i ~ 25), highly-multiplexed optical and near-infrared multi-object spectroscopy (MOS) on 8-40m telescopes would greatly improve measurements of cosmological parameters from LSST. The largest gain would come from…
MOMOS, the Multi-Object MKID Optical Spectrometer, is a proposed visible wavelength spectrometer that uses MKIDs (Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors) targeting an initial resolving power of 3500. With their modest wavelength-resolving…
Label-free imaging of rapidly moving, sub-diffraction sized structures has important applications in both biology and material science, as it removes the limitations associated with fluorescence tagging. However, unlabeled nanoscale…
We experimentally demonstrated a spectral imaging scheme with dual compressed sensing. With the dimensions of spectral and spatial information both compressed, the spectral image of a colored object can be obtained with only a single point…
As the quantity and resolution of spectral-cubes from optical/infrared and radio surveys increase, desktop-based visualization and analysis solutions must adapt and evolve. Novel immersive 3D environments such as the CAVE2 at Monash…
Time domain astronomy has both increased the data volume and the urgency of data reduction in recent years. Spectra provide key insights into astrophysical phenomena but require complex reductions. Las Cumbres Observatory has six…
This paper considers a compressive multi-spectral light field camera model that utilizes a one-hot spectralcoded mask and a microlens array to capture spatial, angular, and spectral information using a single monochrome sensor. We propose a…
