使い方

Distance from a photon arrival-time histogram: `d = c*t/2`.

Direct time-of-flight. The light travels to the target and back, so the

one-way distance is half the round-trip time times the speed of light.

*bin_ps* is the width of one time bin (a 100 ps bin is 1.50 cm of depth).

Four estimators, from crudest to sharpest:

• `"peak"` — the centre of the fullest bin. Quantised to the bin grid;

the error is uniform in `+-half a bin (+-0.75 cm` at 100 ps).

• `"centroid"` — the first moment of the whole histogram. Exact for a

symmetric pulse *with no background*, and badly biased toward the middle

of the window with one — pass `subtract_background=True`.

• `"parabolic"` — a parabola through the peak bin and its two neighbours.

Sub-bin, cheap, and biased for a Gaussian pulse.

• `"gaussian"` — the same parabola fitted to the log of those three

samples, which is the exact vertex for a Gaussian pulse.

Measured on a noiseless simulated return at 2.4371 m (256 bins x 100 ps,

500 ps IRF), absolute error: `peak 1.29 mm, centroid` 4.4e-16 m,

`parabolic 0.067 mm, gaussian` 9.4e-9 m — three orders of magnitude

between the crudest and the sharpest.

With Poisson noise (200 signal + 200 ambient photons, seed 0) the same

four give 13.7 mm, 146.5 mm (with `subtract_background=True`), 8.5 mm and

8.0 mm. Two honest readings of that: once shot noise dominates the sub-bin

estimators buy about 1.6x, not three orders of magnitude, and the centroid

collapses because a median-subtracted ambient floor still leaves noise

across the whole window that drags the first moment toward the centre. Use

`"gaussian" or "parabolic" on noisy data; use "centroid"` only when

the background is genuinely gone.

*offset_ps* is a system delay to remove: ``t_flight = t_measured -

offset_ps``, so a positive offset makes the answer *closer*. Returns the

distance in metres as a float.

Raises `ValueError`: negative, non-finite, non-1-D or all-zero *hist*,

a non-positive *bin_ps*, an unknown *mode*, a non-finite *offset_ps*, a

flat histogram in a peak-based mode (`argmax` would silently pick bin 0

and report the first bin's depth), a peak in the first or last bin with a

sub-bin *mode* (there is no neighbour to fit to — use `"peak"`), a

degenerate three-sample fit, and — instead of returning a negative distance —

an *offset_ps* larger than the measured arrival time.

Typed bridge of the photon op `dtof_depth into the 2-D evolution registry: the same implementation, called under the op(v, a, b) convention. a drives bin_ps (default 100); b` is unused.
