Medical Application
Accordion Fringe Interferometry (AFI) is a revolutionary technology that applies
linear laser interferometry to three dimensions. It allows to make a 3D digital
model of a subject as easy as traditional photography. The original work on AFI
was done at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory - Federally Funded Research and Development
Center of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). All of the MIT-developed
AFI patents are exclusively licensed by MIT to DPI for all fields-of-use worldwide.
