OSC Colloquium: Abbie Watnik, "Controlling Light in Uncontrolled Environments"

July 24, 2023

Title: Controlling Light in Uncontrolled Environments 

Abstract: 

Uncontrolled environments – either natural or manmade – impact how light propagates and is detected. Various scenarios such as atmospheric turbulence, laser threats, camouflage, turbid or scattering conditions (underwater, fog, sand, etc.), all affect light propagation, detection and ultimately our ability to sense and image the world around us. In this talk, I will provide an overview of research at the US Naval Research Laboratory that utilize active imaging approaches to provide successful image reconstructions when the environment for collecting photons limits conventional approaches to imaging.
