Traditional endoscopes comprise many thousands of optical fibres resulting in sizable systems. Here in Glasgow we are developing an endoscope the width of a single human hair. This new approach gives images of hard-to-reach areas, but sometimes sound is important too. The aim of this project is to extend the functionality of our endoscope to give both images and sound. We will achieve this through high-speed homodyne imaging of the back scattered light. This will involve skills in optical design, algorithm development and high-speed computing. Beyond the technical aspects of the project the student will interact strongly with our external collaborating organisations.

传统的内窥镜包括成千上万的光纤，从而形成相当大的系统。在格拉斯哥，我们正在研制一种只有一根头发丝那么宽的内窥镜。这种新方法可以提供难以到达区域的图像，但有时声音也很重要。该项目的目的是扩展我们的内窥镜的功能，以提供图像和声音。我们将通过后向散射光的高速零差成像来实现这一点。这将涉及光学设计、算法开发和高速计算方面的技能。除了项目的技术方面，学生将与我们的外部合作组织进行强烈的互动。
