IMAGE SHARPENING FOR SUBJECTS IMAGED THROUGH DISPLAY
An electronic device comprises a display, an illumination source, a camera, and a logic system. The illumination source is configured to project structured illumination onto a subject. The camera is configured to image the subject through the display, which includes collecting the structured illumination as reflected by the subject. The logic system is configured to receive, from the camera, a digital image of the subject imaged through the display. The logic system is further configured to sharpen the digital image based on the spatially resolved intensity of the structured illumination as reflected by the subject.
