Abstract :
In order to improve the imaging quality of conventional laser photography, this study proposes a new system for colored pulse laser photography to obtain high speed color microscopic imaging. Based on the RGB synthesis technique, three channels of red, green, and blue images are acquired from three cameras with three independent laser light sources. Then, a high quality color image can be obtained by assembling the monochromatic images with the image realignment and color calibration processes. The experimental results show that the proposed system can achieve a high quality colored pulse photography.
