Compressive video microscope via structured illumination
01 January 2016
A compressive video microscope based on structured illumination is built. The source-side illumination coding scheme allows the emission photons being collected by the full aperture of the microscope objective, and thus is suitable for the fluorescence readout mode. A block-wise total variation algorithm has been proposed to address the mismatch between the illumination pattern size and the detector pixel size. Image sequences with a temporal compression ratio of 4:1 are demonstrated.
