Three-Dimensional(3D) Active imaging are usually employed for target detection and recognition[1~3]. In recent years, many methods have been presented for high-speed 3D active imaging[4~5]. However, for those methods employ one group of images only maintains one more gated partition, the depth resolution increases linearly with the number of images. This character limits the performance of 3D active imaging systems. In this paper, we demostrate how to overcome this limitation. In our method, we introduce an exponential code method to ploting out partitions which makes the depth resolution increased exponential with the number of images. Furthemore, oure poltiong is robust and realible for it is based on binary principle.
