Oil Particle Analysis Using Machine Learning And Holography Imaging, Daniel Cruz Dec 2022

Oil Particle Analysis Using Machine Learning And Holography Imaging, Daniel Cruz

Open Access Theses & Dissertations

Holographic cameras show potential as a sensor to monitor oil spills. Holographic cameras record the light interference from particles in a volume of space, producing an image called a hologram. Processing these holograms is known as hologram reconstruction. It produces a representation of particles located in three-dimensional space. These cameras can record precise shapes and sizes of particles in a volume of water. However, it is very time-consuming and resource-intensive to process the images. Most algorithms that perform particle analysis require the hologram reconstruction step. The well-documented hybrid method is one such algorithm. Machine learning is one possible technique that …


Maximum Trapping Focal Length In Photophoretic Trap For 3d Imaging Systems, Jason M. Childers Jun 2022

Maximum Trapping Focal Length In Photophoretic Trap For 3d Imaging Systems, Jason M. Childers

Electrical Engineering

This product is a photophoretic trapping system which allows varying focal lengths to test which focal lengths are possible for trapping toner particles. This system establishes that there exists a maximum trapping distance limitation and is the first time the effect of focal length is studied in a photophoretic trapping system. Increasing photophoretic trapping focal length is necessary for improving this technology as a 3D display. The 3D imaging technology is realized by dragging a microscopic (micrometer-scale) particles with a laser beam to trace an image. This technology can display fully colored and high-resolution 3D images visible from almost any …
