“…There are other types of SLMs that can be used to establish a single-pixel imaging system, and one can select the proper modulators in different regions of interest. A summarized table (Table 1) is thus given to compare these modulators, such as DMD [86,87], LCD or LCOS [88,89], mechanical mask [90,91], customized diffuser [92,93], light-emitting diode (LED) arrays [94,95] and optical phase arrays (OPA) [96,97]. From the given table, it can be seen that the LCOS and DMD potentially satisfy the continuously increasing trend of miniature imaging systems due to their compactness.…”
