摘要
In this paper, we present a method of using digital micro-mirror devices to dynamic range enhancement of a digital optical microscope images. Our adaptive feedback illumination control generates a high dynamic range image through an algorithm that combines the DMD-to-camera pixel geometrical mapping and a feedback operation. The feedback process automatically generates an illumination pattern in an iterative fashion that spatially modulates the DMD array elements on pixel-by-pixel level. Via experiment, we demonstrate a system that uses precise DMD control of the projector to enhance the dynamic range ideally by a factor of 573. Results are presented showing approximately 5 times the camera dynamic range, enabling visualization over a wide range of specimen characteristics. (C) 2008 Optical Society of America
