Abstract

Non-line-of-sight (NLOS) imaging relies on collecting light that is rendered incoherent from the multiple scattering events and is then post-processed to provide an estimate of the hidden scene. Here we employ coherent phase control of the outgoing laser beam phase front so as to refocus the beam behind the obscuring obstacle and then use the speckle memory effect to scan the focused spot across the scene. The back-reflected light intensity provides a direct measurement of the scene with a signal-to-noise ratio that is greatly improved when measured using a temporally gated detector. A spatial resolution of less than 1 mm is demonstrated, opening the way to high-resolution NLOS imaging.
