Adaptive Micro Optical Correlator (AMOC)


Principal investigator:
Dackson Masiyano

Project period: 01 January 2014   To: 31 July 2014

Project details

Two Trees Photonics Limited received CDE funding to develop facial recognition for mobile technology. The Milton Keynes company has produced an Adaptive Micro Optical Correlator (AMOC), which can be used on applications constrained by power, mass, volume and bandwidth. The optical system, which uses Liquid Crystal on Silicon technology, results in character recognition that is consistent with simulation. This should aid with motion detection, particularly in a complex scene. The company is now seeking collaborative support to take this proof-of-principle system through to a full-scale demonstrator and eventually to production.
