ペンシルベニア州立大学の研究者は、超薄型の「メタサーフェス」を開発し、通常のカメラを「ハイパースペクトル偏光カメラ」に変える技術を発表しました。メタサーフェスは光のスペクトルと偏光データを同時にキャプチャし、機械学習フレームワークでリアルタイムに解析します。この技術は、果物の鮮度確認や医療診断に応用可能で、カメラの性能を大幅に向上させる可能性があります。

Abstract

Light fields carry a wealth of information, including intensity, spectrum, and polarization. However, standard cameras capture only the intensity, disregarding other valuable information. While hyperspectral and polarimetric imaging systems capture spectral and polarization information, respectively, in addition to intensity, they are often bulky, slow, and costly. Here, we have developed an encoding metasurface paired with a neural network enabling a normal camera to acquire hyperspectro-polarimetric images from a single snapshot. Our experimental results demonstrate that this metasurface-enhanced camera can accurately resolve full-Stokes polarization across a broad spectral range (700 to 1150 nanometer) from a single snapshot, achieving a spectral sensitivity as high as 0.23 nanometer. In addition, our system captures full-Stokes hyperspectro-polarimetric video in real time at a rate of 28 frames per second, primarily limited by the camera’s readout rate. Our encoding metasurface offers a compact, fast, and cost-effective solution for multidimensional imaging that effectively uses information within light fields.
