Optical visual cryptography based on binary computer generated hologram (BCGH) was proposed which used optics instead of human eyesight for decryption. As a result, it was possible to adapt cryptography to optical system. However, it also had some difficulties because it did not overcome the existing problem of visual cryptography completely. This paper suggested the method of optical cryptography implementation based on the phase modulation characteristics of liquid crystal display (LCD). The problems and appropriations are evaluated with some simulation. This system showed that the noise was reduced and resolution was improved compare with the conventional optical visual cryptography.
Visual cryptography made it possible to decrypt the information encrypted by thresholding scheme not with digital system but with human vision system. This method, however, has some limit in it because of the rack of resolution in both the spatial and amplitude domain. Optical visual cryptography, which used laser system instead of human eyesight, was proposed by conjunction of the optical theory with the cryptography. However, it also had some difficulties because it did not overcome the existing problem of visual cryptography completely. The problems occurred in the process of transferring data processing system from visual to optics. Therefore, it is appropriate to approach these problems in terms of optics. The results show that the optical visual cryptograph system has both the effectiveness and reliability as well as real-time implementation property.
This paper proposes a volume hologram-based autostereoscopic 3D display system. In order to synthesize a multiplexed striped image (MSI), this system sues the grating pattern of a volume hologram. Thus, unlike in the digital based system, the synthesis of the MSI in this system ca be made in real- time. We analytically describe this procedure that consists of two steps, recording of grating pattern and illumination of object wave, and present some experimental results for a two-view display system.
The thresholding scheme in which a person can decode the encrypted data with an important information in the agreement of other members has been extended to the visual data by visual cryptography. But with the limitation of visual cryptography in the representation of information, some problem is encountered in application. This paper proposes a method to overcome the problem by introducing an optical technique to the visual cryptography.
We propose an optical correlator system using volume hologram for database of matched filter. Optical correlator has high speed and parallel processing characteristics of optics. Matched filters are recorded into a volume hologram that can store data with high density, transfer them with high speed, and select a randomly chosen data element. The multiple reference images of database are prerecorded in a photorefractive crystal in the form of Fourier transform images, simply by passing the image displayed in a spatial light modulator through a Fourier transform lens. The angular multiplexing method for multiple holograms of database is achieved by controlling the reference directions with a step motor. Experimental results show that the proposed system can be used for fingerprint recognition.
In this paper, a rotation invariant fingerprint identification system is implemented by using Dove prism. The input fingerprints are rotated with Dove prism and try out the correlation. We present that this system has the rotation invariant properties and can recognize the fingerprint in real-time. Binary phase only filter (BPOF) used for the spatial matched filter. Through some experiments, we also show that this system has a good performance in the rotated fingerprints.
In this paper, a rotation invariant fingerprint identification system is implemented by using the circular harmonic filter and the binary phase extraction joint transform correlator. We present that this system has the shift and rotation invariant properties and can recognize the fingerprint in real-time. The complex circular harmonic filter which is used to obtain the rotation invariance, is converted into the real-valued filter for real-time implementation. Through computer simulation, we also show that this system has a good performance in the rotated fingerprints.
In this paper, a new real-time optical image switching system based on the binary phase extraction joint transform correlator (BPEJTC) is suggested. The phase filter which has the arbitrary position mapping function between input and output plane is constructed by using the modified joint transform power spectrum (JTPS) of the BPEJTC. Then, the input image is multiplied by this phase filter in the spatial frequency plane and through further Fourier transform the input image is switched to the new positions in the output plane where the correlation peaks are occurred. The practical optical switching system is opto-digitally constructed and through some experiments the possibility of real-time implementation of the image switching system is suggested.
We propose an optodigital hybrid fingerprint identification system based on the binary phase extraction joint transform correlator (BPEJTC). It is shown that since the BPEJTC provides higher peak-to-sidelobe ratio than that of the conventional JTC and does not cause correlation peaks due to intra-class association, this system is well-adaptive to the multiple object environments. We show that this system allows the simultaneous comparison of an input fingerprint to several reference fingerprints in a single correlation. Experimental results show that this system has a good performance in the presence of multiple images for the fingerprint identification.
A novel BPEJTC-based method of extracting a moving target's signature residing in a background input is proposed. The efficiency of this method depends to a great extent on the degree of a JTC performance. A BPEJTC is shown to have a improved peak-to-sidelobe ratio than that of a conventional JTC. An optoelectronic system implementing this method is realized. In this system, time-consuming computations, like FFT are conducted optically while arithmetic operations are executed digitally such that the proposed hybrid system can operate in real-time. Some experimental results obtained with real input images indicate that the proposed system can effectively work even in a nonstationary background.
In this paper, we present an OptoNeural approach to the problem of multitarget tracking. The proposed hybrid OptoNeural system uses a new optical binary phase extraction joint transform correlator (BPEJTC) to reduce the massive input target data into a few correlation peak signals. A parallel computational neural network is then used for effective target tracking data association based on these correlation signals. For real-time operation, the BPEJTC is optically implemented using the high resolution LCD spatial light modulators and CCD detectors. Some experimental results on simultaneous tracking of multitargets are also provided.

Through the computer simulation, the performance of the proposed hybrid opto-neural tracking system is evaluated and some experimental results on simultaneous tracking of multi-targets are also provided.
