Holography viewed from the perspective of the light field camera

JW Goodman - Fringe 2013: 7th International Workshop on Advanced …, 2014 - Springer
Sometimes an understanding of one imaging modality can inform us about properties of
another quite different imaging modality. We illustrate this thought with an example. First we …

Wigner analysis of three dimensional pupil with finite lateral aperture
