A pair of thin prisms is used to deviate a light beam without changing the image orientation in a vectorial shearing interferometer. The relative angle between prisms determines the displacement of the wave front and its tilt. The direction of the beam displacement is controlled by means of changing the relative angle between prisms. This system is employed to control the displacement of a sheared wave front as a vector quantity and to introduce a controlled amount of tilt in what we believe is a novel interferometric shearing system. The predicted performance of this wave-front director is confirmed experimentally.

The vectorial shearing interferometer is based on the Mach–Zehnder configuration; it incorporates a displacement shearing system composed of a pair of wedge prisms that modify the optical path difference and the tilt of the sheared wave front with respect to that of the reference wave front. Variable shear and tilt can be implemented along any direction by choice of displacements Δx and Δy. The number of fringes and their orientation can be controlled with the vectorial shear. Knowledge of the prescribed displacements in the x and the y directions permits one to obtain a phase gradient in any direction.

Risley prisms are widely used for beam pointing in several optical systems. The exact solution for the inverse problem does not exist, except using numerical methods. However, the errors introduced by misalignment are usually greater than the approximation errors. We present a novel method to compensate alignment errors in pointing systems based on Risley prisms. The prism model that we used is based on paraxial approximation with an additional vector to compensate typical alignment errors. Simulation and experimental results show that the improvement in pointing accuracy is achievable even in comparison with exact ray tracing methods.

In this work, we propose a novel technique to retrieve 3D shape of dynamic objects by the simultaneous projection of a fringe pattern and a homogeneous white light pattern, both coded in an RGB image. The first one is used to retrieve the phase map by an iterative least-squares method. The second one is used to match object pixels in consecutive images, acquired at various object positions. The proposed method successfully accomplishes the requirement of projecting simultaneously two different patterns. One extracts the object's information while the other retrieves the phase map. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed scheme.
