Assignee: UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSE RESEARCH FOUNDATION
Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC G  H | IPC G

Claim 14:
15. A system for imaging a target, the system comprising:
an optical modulator configured for applying, to each field of view of a plurality of fields of view of the target, a respective optical modulation pattern to a received image of the target to output a modulated image;
a camera configured for capturing a single image frame for the plurality of fields of view by receiving the modulated images of the target; and
a demodulator implemented on a computer system comprising at least one processor, wherein the demodulator is configured for recovering, from the single image frame, a plurality of recovered image frames each depicting the target from a respective field of view;
wherein the demodulator is configured for performing selective filtering in the frequency domain to isolate the recovered images using data specifying modulation patterns, and wherein the demodulator is configured for combining the recovered image frames to create a single full scene image frame.
