An inspection apparatus includes a specimen stage, one or more imaging devices and a set of lights, all controllable by a control system. By translating or rotating the one or more imaging devices or specimen stage, the inspection apparatus can capture a first image of the specimen that includes a first imaging artifact to a first side of a reference point and then capture a second image of the specimen that includes a second imaging artifact to a second side of the reference point. The first and second imaging artifacts can be cropped from the first image and the second image respectively, and the first image and the second image can be digitally stitched together to generate a composite image of the specimen that lacks the first and second imaging artifacts.

Disclosed is a method and device for regulating imaging accuracy of a motion-sensing camera. The method comprises: acquiring an infrared speckle pattern in a target infrared scene; recognizing an actual definition, an actual speckle regularity, and an actual central region brightness of the infrared speckle pattern; comparing the actual definition with a preset definition, the actual speckle regularity with a preset speckle regularity, and the actual central region brightness with a preset brightness; and adjusting an imaging focal length according to a comparison result, and completing regulation of the imaging accuracy. In this way, the method for regulating imaging accuracy of a motion-sensing camera of the present invention can obtain an infrared speckle pattern having required imaging accuracy. Thus, the quality of a depth map formed by conversion from the infrared speckle pattern can be highly improved, which provides a high-quality data source for subsequent skeleton-based recognition and gesture recognition.

A volume holographic film (such as a photopolymer) that is pre-recorded with patterns subsequently is used to encode LED or low-power laser light reflections from an eye into a binary pattern that can be read at very high speeds by a relatively simple complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) sensor that may be similar to a high framerate, low resolution mouse sensor. The low-resolution mono images from the film are translated into eye poses using, for instance, a look up table that correlates binary patterns to X, Y positions or using a pre-trained convolutional neural network to robustly interpret many variations of the binary patterns for conversion to X, Y positions.
