Depth rendering of large incoherent scenes from integral images
2016
Integral imaging is a technique that provides the spatial and angular information of three-dimensional (3D) scenes through a single shot. Taking advantage of this capability, different applications have been developed. Some of these applications are the 3D display and digital post-processing, in particular depth-reconstruction from integral images.
Distribution of Intraocular Pressure and Its Association with Ocular Features and Cardiovascular Risk Factors
2013
Purpose To describe the distribution of intraocular pressure (IOP) and its association with ocular features and cardiovascular risk factors in an adult European cohort. Design Population-based, cross-sectional study. Participants This analysis was based on a Gutenberg Health Study (GHS) cohort that included 4335 eligible enrollees from among 5000 subjects who participated in the survey from 2007 through 2008. The age range was 35 to 74 years at enrollment. Methods Participants underwent a standardized protocol with a comprehensive questionnaire; ophthalmic examination including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, noncontact tonometry, fundus photography, central corneal thickness measurement, and visu…
The Evonik-Mainz-Eye-Care-Study (EMECS): Design and Execution of the Screening Investigation
2014
Purpose To determine if screening for major ophthalmological diseases is feasible within the frame of routine occupational medicine examinations in a large working population. Methods 13037 employees of Evonik Industries aged 40 to 65 years were invited to be screened for major ophthalmological diseases (glaucoma, age related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy between June 2007 and March 2008 within an extended setting of occupational medicine. Ophthalmological examinations consisted of visual acuity, objective refraction, pachymetry, tonometry, perimetry (frequency doubling technology), confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy and digital fundus photography. Participants responded…
Diagnostic accuracy of nonmydriatic fundus photography for the detection of glaucoma in diabetic patients.
2015
Purpose. To determine the diagnostic accuracy for glaucoma of a set of criteria with nonmydriatic monoscopic fundus photography (NMFP) in diabetics. Methods. Diabetics recruited from a screening program for diabetic retinopathy and diabetic glaucoma patients recruited from our glaucoma unit were included. Any patient with evidence of diabetic retinopathy was excluded. Diabetic patients had to have no visual field defects to be included as controls. Glaucoma patients had to have a glaucomatous field defect in at least one eye to be included. One NMFP was taken per eye for all subjects. These photographs were evaluated by two masked glaucoma specialists for the presence of the following: bila…
Improvement of two-dimensional structured illumination microscopy with an incoherent illumination pattern of tunable frequency.
2018
In two-dimensional structured illumination microscopy (2D-SIM), high-resolution images with optimal optical sectioning (OS) cannot be obtained simultaneously. This tradeoff can be overcome by using a tunable-frequency 2D-SIM system and a proper reconstruction method. The goal of this work is twofold. First, we present a computational approach to reconstruct optical-sectioned images with super-resolution enhancement (OS-SR) by using a tunable SIM system. Second, we propose an incoherent tunable-frequency 2D-SIM system based on a Fresnel biprism implementation. Integration of the proposed computational method with this tunable structured illumination (SI) system results in a new 2D-SIM system…
Ombre di memoria. Immagini e storie di migranti da Richard Mosse a Georges Perec
2019
The following pages present the analysis of a crucial issue for the genre of the photo-text, that of migrations intended as stories of wandering and hope and respect to which the literary word and the photographic image are still questioning, especially for what concerns the opportunity and the modalities of narration and memory. Two cases distant in time and space seem to offer a reflection on the inexhaustible question, and above all on the way in which it can be tackled without falling back into the often sterile ground of documentary or memorial narration: Incoming (2017) by the photographer Richard Mosse and Récits d’Ellis Island. Histoires d’errance et d’espoir (1980), the work of Geo…
Monoscopic Photogrammetry to Investigate the Buildings in the Period of Modernism in Salerno: The Case Study of Torquato Tasso High School
2021
The city of Salerno and the expansion that underwent in the 1920s in order to respond to the urban expansion following the demographic increase that occurred at the beginning of the century will be the topics discussed in this paper. Transformations that created a face to the city that, in its forms, although not linked to the most advanced avant-garde, represent a testimony of the new characteristics of the “modern” city. Within this evolutionary process of the province of Salerno there is the 1928 project of two engineers, Michele and his son Luigi De Angelis for the construction of the “Regio” School. In a first moment, several projects found in the archives refer mainly to the various l…
Il fotografo bracconiere
2021
L’opera di Maurizio Galimberti ci ha abituato a vedere nella fotografia del Novecento, e anche in quella dei primi decenni del nuovo secolo, un repertorio inesauribile di mosse teoriche che egli – senza intellettualismi – ha saputo ripensare attraverso la sua peculiare prassi artistica. Maurizio Galimberti's work has accustomed us to seeing in the photography of the twentieth century, and also in that of the first decades of the new century, an inexhaustible repertoire of theoretical moves that he - without intellectualism - was able to rethink through his peculiar artistic practice.
Nella giostra della social photography
2018
Oggi la fotografia va ben oltre la fissazione dei ricordi. Il volume riprende la nota ricerca di Bourdieu relativa agli usi sociali della fotografia intorno alla metà degli anni Sessanta. Da questa si desume che un tempo gli scatti dei non professionisti, mediati dall'habitus di classe, intercettavano i momenti topici della vita sociale e le tipicità espresse da una cultura condivisa. Mentre le foto dei professionisti aspiravano a riconoscere i momenti decisivi in senso autoriale in vari ambiti (reportage, moda, paesaggio, pubblicità ). Oggi, in virtù dell'accelerazione sociale, siamo incerti sulla direzione della Storia. Tutti i fenomeni sono potenzialità del mondo, come tutte le immagini …
Lightfield microscopy, an emerging tool for real-time 3D imaging
2020
Integral, or lightfield, microscopy offers the possibility of capturing and processing in real time multiple views of 3D fluorescent samples captured with a single shot. In this contribution we review the recent advances in lightfield microscopy and enunciate the forthcoming challenges.
