  1. Shape-from-Polarimetry: Recovering Sea Surface Topography Howard Schultz Department of Computer Science University of Massachusetts 140 governors Dr Amherst, MA 01003 hschultz@cs.umass.edu> October 2011

  2. Outline • Why recover the spatial-temporal structure of ocean waves? • Requirements • What is polarimetry? • What is the Shape-from-Polarimetry? • Build and Test an Imaging Polarimeter for Ocean Apps. • Recent Experiment and Results • Optical Flattening • Seeing Through Waves

  3. Why recover the structure of the ocean surface? • Characterize small small-scale wave dynamics and microscale breaking • Air-sea interactions occur at short wavelengths • Non-linear interaction studies require phase-resolved surface topography • Enable through-the-wave imaging • Detect anomalies in surface slope statistics • Why use a passive optical technique • Probes disturb the air-sea interaction • Radar do not produce phase-resolved surfaces • Active techniques are complex and expensive • Requirements • Spatial resolution (resolve capillary waves) ~ 1mm • Temporal resolution ~60Hz sampling rate • Shutter speed < 1 msec

  4. What is polarimetry? • Light has 3 basic qualities • Color, intensity and polarization • Humans do not see polarization

  5. Linear Polarization http://www.enzim.hu/~szia/cddemo/edemo0.htm

  6. Circular Polarization

  7. Amount of circular polarization Orientation and degree of linear polarization Intensity What is polarimetry? • A bundle of light rays is characterized by intensity, a frequency distribution (color), and a polarization distribution • Polarization distribution is characterized by Stokes parameters S = (S0, S1, S2, S3) • The change in polarization on scattering is described by Muller Calculus SOUT = M SIN • Where M contains information about the shape and material properties of the scattering media • The goal: Measure SOUT and SIN and infer the parameters of M Incident Light Muller Matrix Scattered Light

  8. What is Shape-from-Polarimetry (SFP)? • Use the change in polarization of reflected skylight to infer the 2D surface slope, , for every pixel in the imaging polarimeter’s field-of-view

  9. What is Shape-from-Polarimetry (SFP)?

  10. What is Shape-from-Polarimetry (SFP)? SAW = RAWSSKYand SWA = TAWSUP

  11. What is Shape-from-Polarimetry (SFP)? • For RaDyO we incorporated 3 simplifying assumptions • Skylight is unpolarized SSKY = SSKY(1,0,0,0) good for overcast days • In deep, clear water upwelling light can be neglected SWA = (0,0,0,0). • The surface is smooth within the pixel field-of-view

  12. What is Shape-from-Polarimetry (SFP)?

  13. How well does the SFP technique work? • Conduct a feasibility study • Rented a linear imaging polarimeter • Laboratory experiment • setup a small 1m x 1m wavetank • Used unpolarized light • Used wire gauge to simultaneously measure wave profile • Field experiment • Collected data from a boat dock • Overcast sky (unpolarized) • Used a laser slope gauge

  17. Build and Test an Imaging Polarimeter for Oceanographic Applications • Funded by an ONR DURIP • Frame rate 60 Hz • Shutter speed as short as 10 μsec • Measure all Stokes parameters • Rugged and light weight • Deploy in the Radiance in a Dynamic Ocean (RaDyO) research initiative http://www.opl.ucsb.edu/radyo/

  20. Sample Results • A sample dataset from the Santa Barbara Channel experiment was analyzed • Video 1 shows the x- and y-slope arrays for 1100 frames • Video 2 shows the recovered surface (made by integrating the slopes) for the first 500 frames

  23. Convert slope arrays to a height array Use the Fourier derivative theorem

  25. Seeing Through Waves • Sub-surface to surface imaging • Surface to sub-surface imaging

  26. Optical Flattening

  27. Optical Flattening • Remove the optic distortion caused by surface waves to make it appear as if the ocean surface was flat • Use the 2D surface slope field to find the refracted direction for each image pixel • Refraction provides sufficient information to compensate for surface wave distortion • Real-time processing

  42. Detecting Submerged Objects“Lucky Imaging” • Use refraction information to keep track of where each pixel (in each video frame) was looking in the water column • Build up a unified view of the underwater environment over several video frames • Save rays that refract toward the target area • Reject rays that refract away from the target area
