Activities in imaging through fog at CD6: polarized light propagation modelling

Currently, in CD6, a new line of research devoted to polarimetric imaging is being developed. The use of polarization adds new information that is not reachable using other conventional imaging modes. In addition, recent literature explores the capability of using polarized illumination and detection to extend the range and enhance image contrast in turbid media such as fog, dust or smoke. Different computational and experimental tools are presented, in order to study polarized light behavior when propagating through foggy media.
