Abstract

Traditional video capture is limited by the trade-off between spatial and temporal resolution. When capturing videos of high temporal resolution, the spatial resolutions decreases due to bandwidth limitations in the capture system. Achieving both high spatial \textit{and} temporal resolution is only possible with highly specialized and very expensive hardware; although the bandwidth is higher, the same basic trade-off remains. In this paper, we make use of a \textit{single-shot}, high-speed video capture system, in order to overcome this limitation. It is based on compressive sensing, and relies on dictionary learning for sparse video representation. This allows capturing a video sequence by coding the temporal information in a single frame, and then reconstructing the full video sequence from this single coded image. We perform an in-depth analysis of the parameters of influence in the system, providing insights for future developments of similar systems.
