A
system and method for obtaining an image of an object out of
line of sight, the method comprising directing a
chaotic light beam at a first area containing the object; measuring the light from the
chaotic light beam at a plurality of instances in time; using a
photon detector, detecting light from a second area over a plurality of instances in time; the
photon detector not being in the
line of sight with the first area but in line-of-
sight with a second area; using a processor, correlating the information received by the
photon detector with the measurement of light from the
chaotic light beam at specific instances in time; and producing an image of the object. The
system for imaging information comprising a spatial
receiver, a chaotic photon
light source for producing light; the light comprising a first beam adapted to be directed at a first predetermined area containing an object, and a second beam which is received by the spatial
receiver and measured at specific intervals in time; at least one processor operatively connected to the spatial
receiver, the spatial receiver operating to transmit spatial information correlated to specific intervals of time to the processor; and a first receiver operatively connected to the at least one processor and operative to detect the influence of the object on the first portion of the light beam; the first receiver not being in the
line of sight with the first predetermined area and adapted to detect light from a second predetermined area spaced from and coplanar with the first predetermined area, the at least one processor operating to correlate the outputs of the first receiver with spatial information derived from the spatial receiver at correlating intervals of time to create an image of the object.
