We provide methods which recover planar scene geometry by utilizing the transient histograms captured by a class of close-range time-of-flight (ToF) distance sensor. A transient histogram is a one dimensional temporal waveform which encodes…
4D seismic imaging has been widely used in CO$_2$ sequestration projects to monitor the fluid flow in the volumetric subsurface region that is not sampled by wells. Ideally, real-time monitoring and near-future forecasting would provide…
Spinning LiDAR data are prevalent for 3D vision tasks. Since LiDAR data is presented in the form of point clouds, expensive 3D operations are usually required. This paper revisits spinning LiDAR scan formation and presents a cylindrical…
We use cyclic spectroscopy to directly measure the scintillation parameter $C_1$ for the millisecond pulsar B1937+21. This marks the first time this constant has been measured for any pulsar without assuming a pulse broadening function…
NeRF acquisition typically requires careful choice of near planes for the different cameras or suffers from background collapse, creating floating artifacts on the edges of the captured scene. The key insight of this work is that background…
Specular reflection can be problematic for the determination of the cloud thermodynamic phase for near-nadir-pointing space LIDARs. A LIDAR system biased towards the specular contribution for backscatter, if near-concurrent to a…
