Polarisation analysis functions
Polarisation toolbox
This zip file contains:
- SunPositionCalculator - Calculates the sun position given time of day and latitude.
- PolAngle_Model - Calculates the angle of polarisation for a zenith-centred hemisphere based on either the single or double-scattering sky polarisation model. Use in conjunction with SunPosCalculator to generate a model for a particular time and latitude.
- PolDegree - Calculates the polarisation degree for the sky hemisphere, given the solar azimuthal angle and elevation. Use in conjunction with SunPosCalculator to generate a model for a particular time and latitude. Uses only the single-scattering sky model.
- StokesReconstruction - Reconstructs the polarisation angle and degree based on four orthogonal images (can be colour or greyscale), using the Stokes equations.
- IntensityReconstruction - Reconstructs the polarisation angle and degree based on four not-necessarily orthogonal images (can be colour or greyscale). Requires knowledge of the angle offsets between images.
- AngleDegree_Image_Combo - Combines the polarisation angle and degree into a single image, where the colour scheme represents the angle and the brightness represents the degree. Use in conjunction with StokesReconstruction or ImageReconstruction to generate images straight from raw footage.
