The principle of Coherent Correlation Imaging (CCI)

Caption

The principle of Coherent Correlation Imaging is used to image a random process, such as, figuratively, a coin toss. A single, brief image of the coin may not be sufficiently exposed to clearly identify the image on the coin. However, a new algorithm can sort and combine multiple images to produce clear images of both sides of the coin, which can then be accurately assigned to the moment of exposure.
