Polarimetric imaging allows for the vector nature of optical information across a scene to be obtained, with recent applications ranging from remote sensing to microscopy. In polarimetric microscopy in particular, different polarization states are conventionally achieved under time-division multiplexing strategies and are mainly subject to static phenomena. In the present work, we propose a cost-effective technique for polarization sensing with the possibility of real-time imaging microscopy. By modifying a commercial camera and replacing the conventional lens with an optical system that integrates a microscope objective and a lenslet array with a polarization mask, linear Stokes parameters can be obtained in a snapshot. The proposed scheme is robust against misalignment and suitable for handling video sequences of microscopic samples. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on combining multi-view sensing and polarization imaging for applications to microscopy.
