Measuring turbulence using spatially encoded QR codes
24 April 2024 • 4:00 PM - 4:20 PM EDT | Potomac 5
Abstract
NIWC Pacific will present a novel, cost-effective method for in situ measurement and characterization of atmospheric turbulence, as quantified by the atmospheric seeing parameter, r0. The technique will leverage spatially encoded QR codes that are imaged using normal imaging optics. The presentation will cover the theory of the technique along with simulation and experimental results compared to a commercial turbulence measurement system.
