Abstract
Fresnel zone aperture (FZA) lensless imaging encodes the incident light into a hologram-like pattern, so that the scene image can be numerically focused at a long imaging range by the back propagation method. However, the target distance is uncertain. The inaccurate distance causes blurs and artifacts in the reconstructed images. This brings difficulties for the target recognition applications, such as quick response code scanning. We propose an autofocusing method for FZA lensless imaging. By incorporating the image sharpness metrics into the back propagation reconstruction process, the method can acquire the desired focusing distance and reconstruct noise-free high-contrast images. By combining the Tamura of the gradient metrics and nuclear norm of gradient, the relative error of estimated object distance is only 0.95% in the experiment. The proposed reconstruction method significantly improves the mean recognition rate of QR code from 4.06% to 90.00%. It paves the way for designing intelligent integrated sensors.
