About University of Central Florida

University of Central Florida

University of Central Florida (UCF) is a university located in Orlando, Florida. UCF is the largest undergraduate school in the state of Florida, the second largest school-including graduate programs, and has quickly become the sixth-largest university in the nation. Center for Research and Education in Optics and Lasers (or CREOL) is a research center within the Orlando, Florida-based College of Optics and Photonics, which itself is a graduate college for optical science and engineering at the University of Central Florida.

Optical Diagnostics and Application Laboratory is located at the University of Central Florida.  Activities in the The Optical Diagnostic and Applications Laboratory (ODA Lab) aim at fostering interdisciplinary basic and applied research in novel optical instrumentation for 3D optical imaging and visualization systems, image analysis, and assessement methodology.

  2. Compressed sensing in optical coherence tomography

    Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Feb 24 2010)

    Compressed sensing in optical coherence tomography Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a valuable technique for non-invasive imaging in medicine and biology. In some applications, conventional time-domain OCT (TD-OCT) has been supplanted by spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT); the latter uses an apparatus that contains no moving parts and can achieve orders of magnitude faster imaging. This enhancement comes at a cost, however: the CCD array detectors required for SD-OCT are more expensive than the simple photodiodes used in ... (Read Full Article)

    Gabor-based fusion technique for Optical Coherence Microscopy We recently reported on an Optical Coherence Microscopy technique, whose innovation intrinsically builds on a recently reported - 2 μm invariant lateral resolution by design throughout a 2 mm cubic full-field of view - liquid-lens-based dynamic focusing optical probe [Murali et al.,Optics Letters 34, 145-147, 2009]. We shall report in this paper on the image acquisition enabled by this optical probe when combined with an automatic data fusion method developed ... (Read Full Article)

    n this letter a feedforward system is developed for control of a quasi continuous wave chirped source. The goal of this work is to improve the uniformity of the temporal profile of a quasi continuous wave chirped laser source. The chirped spectrum input to the system is dynamically flattened using a feedforward scheme having bandwidth in excess of 1GHz resulting in more than 3 times reduction on the contrast of ...

  7. Liquid lens confocal microscopy with advanced signal processing for higher resolution 3D imaging

    Explore Article SPIE Digital Library (Mar 13 2009) Microscopy

    The paper first highlights the use of multiple electronically controlled optical lenses, specifically, liquid lenses to realize an axial scanning confocal microscope with potentially less aberrations. Next, proposed is a signal processing method for realizing high resolution three dimensional (3-D) optical imaging using diffraction limited low resolution optical signals. Using axial shift-based signal processing via computer based computation algorithm, three sets of high resolution optical data is determined along the ... (Read Full Article)

    Optical design of a dynamic focus catheter for high-resolution endoscopic optical coherence tomography The optical system design of a dynamic focus endoscopic probe for optical coherence tomography is reported. The dynamic focus capability is based on a liquid lens technology that provides variable focus by changing its curvatures in response to an electric field variation. The effects of a cylindrical exit window present, in practice, for a catheter were accounted for. Degradation in image quality caused by this window was corrected to get ... (Read Full Article)
