Abstract

An active optical compressive sensing system includes an optical source to generate light for illuminating a target and a pattern generator to generate a pattern. A pattern controller controls an operation of the pattern generator to cause generation of a desired pattern. The pattern is a spatial filtering pattern that enables data compression by generating sparse scattered data. Applying the pattern allows a logarithmic resource scaling.
