Abstract

We show how to construct and calibrate a full-Stokes imaging polarimeter system by combining the video data from two separate polarization cameras with a nonpolarizing beamsplitter and a waveplate. As a result, this system can capture the full Stokes vector at each pixel for 3 megapixel images at up to 60 Hz. To demonstrate some of the advantages of measuring the s 3 Stokes vector component that is normally not measured in polarization cameras, we show three experiments: viewing three-dimensional glasses, detecting a scarab beetle in a natural environment via the circular dichroism of its shell, and mixing an optically active liquid with a neutral liquid.
