      Accés obert
      Fog, haze, or smoke are standard atmospheric phenomena that dramatically compromise the overall visibility of any scene, critically affecting features such as the illumination, contrast, and contour detection of objects. ...
    • Laser feedback interferometry with semiconductor lasers 

      García Gómez, Pablo (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2017-06)
      Treball Final de Grau
      Accés obert
      Realitzat a/amb:   University of Queensland
      Laser Feedback Interferometry is based on the self-mixing effect. When light emitted from a laser reflects in a target and is reinjected into its cavity, the optical parameters of the laser change providing information ...
    • Quantitative demonstration of the superiority of circularly polarized light in fog environments 

      Peña Gutiérrez, Sara; Ballesta Garcia, Maria; García Gómez, Pablo; Royo Royo, Santiago (2022-01-15)
      Article
      Accés obert
      The polarization behavior of light transmitted through scattering media is studied quantitatively. A division of focal plane (DOFP) imaging polarimeter modified with a wideband quarter-wave plate (QWP) is used to evaluate ...
