Abstract
Photon-counting integral imaging has been introduced recently and its applications in 3D object sensing, visualization, recognition and classification under photon-starved conditions have been demonstrated. This paper reviews the underlying information-theoretic foundation behind the observation that such complex tasks can be performed by means of imaging with far fewer photons than conventional imaging systems.
