Design and analysis of polygonal mirror-based scan engines for improved spatial frequency modulation imaging.

Spatial frequency modulation imaging (SPIFI) is a structured illumination single pixel imaging technique that is most often achieved via a rotating modulation disk. This implementation produces line images with exposure times on the order of tens of milliseconds. Here, we present a new architecture for SPIFI using a polygonal scan mirror with the following advances: (1) reducing SPIFI line image exposure times by 2 orders of magnitude, (2) facet-to-facet measurement and correction for polygonal scan design, and (3) a new anamorphic magnification scheme that improves resolution for long working distance optics.
