To review the historical evolution and prospective future trajectories of computational optical sensing and imaging over the past twenty-five years.
Synthesized twenty-five years of thematic proceedings, milestone architectures, and methodological transitions presented at the topical meeting.
Evaluated the shift from decoupled optical capture and post-processing toward fully integrated, algorithm-in-the-loop sensor co-design.
Traced the paradigm shift from traditional optical aberration correction to joint hardware-software optimization across multiple imaging domains.
Identified critical future trajectories, including deep learning-enabled inverse problem solvers and end-to-end differentiable optical systems.
