Real-time edge-enhanced image correlation using the incoherent readout
of a dynamic hologram recorded in a BSO crystal is reported for the f
irst time. A system is described which records the Fresnel transform o
f the input signal in a BSO crystal; such a system exhibits good objec
t discrimination in addition to the usual features of an incoherent co
rrelator. Several experimental results are presented, and these are co
mpared with computer simulations.
