  • the invention relates to three-dimensional image recording apparatus and display apparatus.
  • confocal microscopy also referred to as laser scanning confocal microscopy
  • a focused spot of laser light is used to illuminate a point in a three dimensional (3D) object.
  • Light which is scattered/reflected back along the same path is then collected through a confocal aperture onto a light detector.
  • the detector gives a signal output which is proportional to the reflectance of point.
  • the focal spot is then scanned in a raster manner line-by-line across the object, to gather information in two dimensions across the object. Moving the focal spot to sequential planes allows a 3D image to be obtained.
  • Use of a confocal aperture provides the advantage that objects which lie above and below the focal spot contribute very little to the signal that reaches the detector. However, there are two major difficulties with this approach.
  • each point imaged (commonly referred to as a Voxel or a three dimensional pixel) is measured by a single detector as a level of intensity and does not have any information on the pattern of the out-of-focus planes.

  • the reflected optical signal focussing means preferably comprises an optical lens.
  • the optical aperture is preferably a confocal aperture.
  • the optical detectors are preferably photodetectors.
  • the optical detectors most preferably capture spectral information.

  • the two-dimensional variable spatial optical modulation means causes a two- dimensional record of a voxel to be impressed upon an illuminating optical signal, to thereby recreate the voxel taking into account any effect on the voxel of other object shapes between the voxel and a viewer.

  • the object space 26 contains a square object 28 and a circular object 30, positioned parallel to each other but spaced apart.
  • the expanded laser beam 12 is transmitted by the partially reflecting mirror 14, reflected by the scanning mirror 16 and focused by the first lens 18 onto a voxel 32 on the square object 28.
  • Light reflected back by the voxel 32 on the square object 28 passes back through the lens 18, and is reflected by the XY scanning mirror 16 and partially reflected by the mirror 14 to the second lens 20.
  • the second lens 20 focusses the reflected optical signal in the plane of the confocal aperture 22.
  • the reflected optical signal expands and falls on the array of photodetectors 24, located a suitable distance behind the confocal aperture 22.
  • Each of the photodetectors 24 detects the intensity level of its respective part of the reflected optical signal, and the outputs from each of the photodetectors 24 is recorded in a computer memory, to provide a two-dimensional angular reflectance record of the voxel 32.
  • the circular object 30 partially covers the view of the illuminated image voxel 32.
  • the effect of this is that the image of the voxel 32 which falls on the photodetector array 24 has an obscured area 34.
  • the XY scanning mirror 16 is moved to cause the illuminating optical signal to focus on the new voxel to be recorded, and an image acquired in the same manner. This process is repeated to record lines of voxels across the square object 28.
  • the circular object 30 can then be recorded by moving the lens 18 towards the scanning mirror 16, along its optical axis, so that the focal plane of the lens 18 aligns with the plane of the circular object 30.
  • the circular object 30 can then be scanned and recorded by repeating the process. A three-dimensional recording of the whole of the object space 26 can thus be obtained by scanning all the required planes.
  • Figure 2 illustrates the reflected optical beam of the image recording apparatus 10 of Figure 1 when recording two different objects, namely a letter A and a letter T.

  • modulated optical signal focussing means in the form of a lens 46 movably mounted for movement along its optical axis
  • modulated optical signal path directing means in the form of a static mirror 48 and an XY scanning mirror 50.
  • the LCD 44 comprises an array of image pixels 44a (being the same number as photodetectors 24 in the photodetector array of the image recording apparatus 10), each of which impresses on an illuminating laser beam 42 intensity information corresponding to the intensity information recorded by the respective photodetector.
  • the reflected optical signal of the image recording apparatus 10 is thereby recreated.
  • the transmitted light is reflected by the static mirror 48 and the XY scanning mirror 50 to the lens 46, which focuses the light into a voxel 52 in the image space 54.
  • a viewer positioned to the other side of the apparatus 40 would see the voxel 52 as a point of an object, specifically of the square object 28 recorded by the apparatus 10 of Figure 1.
  • the voxel corresponds to a point on the square object 28 which has the circular object 30 in front of it, then the viewer will only see light from the voxel 52 in directions apart from the chord 56 where the circular object 30 is to be displayed as the LCD 44 would obscure the light in chord 56.
