Lensless single-pixel imaging through dynamic coded-aperture illumination

We demonstrate a lensless single-pixel imaging (SPI) system combining dynamic coded-aperture illumination with single-pixel detection. Binary digital micromirror device (DMD) masks generate tailored grayscale intensity fields through coherent propagation, without relay projection optics or temporal grayscale synthesis. Six target-field configurations---uniform, Rayleigh speckle, squared-Rayleigh speckle, and sparse binary fields with $p=10%$, $5%$, and $1%$---are evaluated using binary and grayscale objects. Intensity-correlation and nonnegative total-variation-regularized reconstructions reveal that the preferred illumination depends on the object, reconstruction method, and evaluation metric. By combining rapid binary modulation, programmable grayscale illumination, and single-pixel readout, this implementation provides a flexible architecture for lensless computational imaging and joint design of optical encoding and reconstruction.
