Abstract
A compact optical novelty filter based on two-wave mixing in a non-linear photorefractive crystal is implemented. The performances of the crystal, a cobalt doped barium titanate (BaTiO3:Co), in terms of depletion efficiency and response time are investigated. It is shown that the spatial light modulator involved in the system causes a drop of the wave-mixing. The system capability to detect cyclic new events, to track motions and to enhance the edges is demonstrated. In the case of a cyclic novelty detection, the cut-off frequency of the system is measured for several incident intensities. The outline characteristics of a moving object are studied versus its velocity and for a set of incident intensities and show, for the first time to our knowledge, to be in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.
