Summary. A modified version of the two-slit experiment is proposed in which the moveable detector/counter used to obtain the fringe distribution by counting single photons at different positions on the screen plane is replaced with a mirror…
A method for displaying volumetric images, which exploits our binocular vision and does not require eyewear, is discussed. The display can be rendered as a matrix of pivoting micromirrors irradiated by a light beam; each micromirror focuses…
Merging multi-exposure image stacks into a high dynamic range (HDR) image requires knowledge of accurate exposure times. When exposure times are inaccurate, for example, when they are extracted from a camera's EXIF metadata, the…
