Abstract

We propose an advanced quantum ghost imaging setup for remote sensing applications, which does not rely on preliminary information on the distances of objects and investigate the quantum benefits of this setup for remote sensing applications. The photon source of the setup will be suited for standoff detection with illumination of remote objects in the infrared, while retrieving the spatial information in the visible regime with matured silicon technology. The setup utilizes single photon avalanche detectors with integrated time to digital converters for detection of both photons to capture the full 3D information of an unknown scene and is suited for imaging over large distances, without the necessity of an optical delay line
