Digital speckle photography: visualization of mesoflow through clustered fiber networks

Appl Opt. 2002 Mar 1;41(7):1368-73. doi: 10.1364/ao.41.001368.

Abstract

Digital speckle photography (DSP) is used for velocity field measurements inside a fiber network. The width of the channels in which the flow is measured is typically less than 1 mm. Therefore a microscope is used to image the fiber network. When we sample 30 images/s and separate the moving parts of the images from the stationary parts, the velocity field can be deduced with DSP.
