    This study introduces a novel method for single-pixel imaging (SPI) using spinning coding masks, overcoming synchronization issues in photon-counting. The developed camera achieves high-speed, low-light imaging efficiently.

    Area of Science:

    • Optics and photonics
    • Computational imaging
    • Low-light imaging technologies

    Background:

    • Spinning coding masks offer fast modulation and cost-effectiveness for real-time single-pixel imaging (SPI).
    • Synchronization challenges arise between mask patterns and photon detectors in the photon-counting regime, unlike with digital micromirror devices.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and validate a novel scheme for synchronizing spinning coding masks with photon detectors in single-pixel imaging.
    • To enable high-fidelity, real-time imaging under extremely low-light conditions.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a scheme assuming constant disk rotation speed and modeling photon detection as a non-homogeneous Poisson process (NHPP).
    • Designed and fabricated a single-pixel camera prototype incorporating the proposed synchronization method.

    Main Results:

    • Successfully resolved synchronization problems and compensated for speed fluctuations in spinning coding masks.
    • The prototype camera achieved imaging under illumination of less than one photon per pixel.
    • Demonstrated a modulation rate of approximately 100 kHz and an imaging speed of 28 frames per second.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed NHPP-based scheme effectively overcomes synchronization issues in photon-counting SPI with spinning masks.
    • The developed compact, lightweight, and low-cost camera is suitable for practical applications in extremely low-light imaging.
