Report reviews optical image subtraction techniques developed during years 1975 through 1985. Useful in such disciplines as studies of earth resources, meteorology, automatic surveillance, pattern recognition, studies of urban growth, and compression of bandwidth in communication systems. Describes following real-time techniques: source encoding, polarization modulation, pseudocolor image-difference detection, holographic-shear-lens technique, and nonlinear electro-optics. Reported non-real-time image-subtraction techniques are following, all of which involve intensity subtraction: speckle-diffuser encoding, speckle-pattern encoding, halftone-screen encoding,and polarization-shifted carrier encoding. Offers an attractive alternative to digital electronic image subtraction, is faster and treats all parts of images simultaneously.
