Distinguished Seminar Series: "Petapixel photography and the limits of camera capacity" by Dr. David Brady 1.24.14/ 11:00am-12:00pm/ CREOL Room 102

Distinguished Seminar Series: "Petapixel photography and the limits of camera capacity" by Dr. David Brady
Friday, January 24, 2014 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM
CREOL Room 102

Dr. David Brady
Michael J. Fitzpatrick Endowed Professor of Photonics at Duke University

Abstract:
Multiscale design and physical layer compression may enable digital cameras to reach diffraction and photon-limited information capacity. This talk considers these limits and describes strategies for reaching diffraction limited resolution with >10 gigapixels and implementing compressive temporal, focal and exposure coding to quantum information limits.

Biography:
David Brady is the Michael J. Fitzpatrick Endowed Professor of Photonics at Duke University, where he leads the Duke Imaging and Spectroscopy Program. Brady's contributions to computational imaging system development include lensless white light imaging, optical projection tomography, compressive holography, reference structure tomography, coded aperture snapshot spectral imaging and coded aperture x-ray scatter imaging. He is currently the principal investigator for the DARPA AWARE Wide Field of View project, which aims to build compact streaming gigapixel scale imagers and the DARPA Knowledge Enhanced Exapixel Photography project, which focuses on code design for high pixel count spectral imagers. He is the author of Optical Imaging and Spectroscopy (Wiley-OSA, 2009) and is a Fellow of IEEE, SPIE and OSA.
