Fig. 2.

Full field image of 1951 USAF neagative resolution target taken through a static fiber bundle and the foveated objective, with red box displaying the higher resolution features and green circles indicating defects of the fiber bundle (A). Image of the same target taken with the vibrating fiber bundle and foveated obejctive in order to increase the spatial sampling, providing an improvement in acievable resolution and overall smoothing of image defects from the fiber bundle. The red box displays the higher resolution features while the green circles illustrate the reduction in the effects of the defects of the fiber bundle (B).
