Why is it important?

This paper set the foundation of the future development of the plenoptic sensor as a type of advanced wavefront sensor.

Perspectives

Chensheng Wu is currently working as a postdoctoral research associate in University of Maryland College Park. Dr. Wu has successfully modified the light field cameras into a wavefront sensor (the plenoptic sensor) that can be used to solve coherent wave detection problems.
