Optical system and imaging method

Abstract

An optical system and an imaging method are disclosed, wherein the optical system comprises a multifilament conductor and an optical diffuser for imaging an intensity pattern onto the multifilament conductor, the intensity pattern representing phase information of light emitted from one or more three-dimensional objects; wherein the multifilament conductor is configured to transmit the intensity pattern in the form of a plurality of pixels to an evaluation system, and wherein the evaluation system is configured to generate an image based on the intensity pattern transmitted by the multifilament conductor, the image representing the one or more three-dimensional objects.
