Event Based Wavefront Sensing Modalities 

Supervisors

Dr Nimrod Kruger & A/Prof Gregory Cohen

Description

Real-time measurement of random phase variations caused by atmospheric turbulence (wavefront sensing) is crucial for applications such as astronomy, free-space laser communication, and vision. While current methods often struggle to achieve the desired accuracy or speed, event-based sensing’s advantages regarding low bandwidth and dynamic scenarios places it as the ideal candidate to tackle this challenge.

This project will explore innovative techniques for phase measurement and wavefront reconstruction and holographic imaging, while considering these in the context of event-based sensing and computing.
