Quantitative phase imaging (QPI) has emerged as method especially for investigating biological specimen. However, conventional methods often suffer from shortcomings in image quality, such as the twin image artifact of inline holography. The presented compact 3D sensing system utilizes a novel computational framework for QPI from single intensity images. The reported system offers accurate and efficient 3D profiling, overcoming the limitations of conventional inline holography approaches. This paradigm shift is promising for biomedical imaging, and material analysis.
