Andreas Velten’s Group Advances “Non-line-of-sight imaging”
In a report in the August 5th, 2019 issue of Nature, Assistant Professor Andreas Velten and his colleagues describe recent advances in the ability to capture images around barriers – a long-term goal brought closer by their recent work.
Scientists from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the Universidad de Zaragoza in Spain, drawing on the lessons of classical optics, have shown that it is possible to image complex hidden scenes using a projected “virtual camera” to see around barriers.
