Abstract

A four camera Stokes imaging polarimeter operating in the visible at 60 frames per second will be presented. The polarimeter makes use of a beam splitter design which allows the measurement of a full Stokes vector image (S0, S1, S2, and S3). The system measures four images of a scene simultaneously. The polarimeter design, calibration procedures, and initial data from the instrument are presented.
