The present disclosure describes an imaging system, method, and apparatus for identifying a latent image of a hidden object. A light source generates a first beam of narrow-band light and a second beam of narrow-band light that has temporal fluctuations correlated with the first beam. A frequency modulator shifts a temporal frequency of at least one of the first beam or the second beam. The first beam is directed towards a first scattering surface and the second beam is directed towards a second scattering surface. The first scattering surface scatters the first beam to a scattered light that illuminates a hidden object. The hidden object reflects at least a portion of the scattered light towards the second scattering surface, the reflected light interferes with the second beam and produces an interference pattern on the second scattering surface. A lock-in camera detects an irradiance of the interference pattern, monitors temporal variations of the irradiance caused by the temporal frequency shift introduced by the frequency modulator, and identifies a complex-valued light field that represents information of the hidden object based on the temporal variations of the irradiance.

Systems and methods for blue light adjustment with a wearable display system are provided. Embodiments of the systems and methods for blue light adjustment can include receiving an eye image of an eye exposed to an adjusted level of blue light; detecting a change in a pupillary response by comparison of the received eye image to a first image; determining that the pupillary response corresponds to a biometric characteristic of a human individual; and allowing access to a biometric application based on the pupillary response determination.
