Overview
- Highlights the use of azimuthal Walsh filters as pupil filters under certain conditions
- Discusses the generation and synthesis of azimuthal Walsh filters
- Describes how the orthogonality and self-similarity of the filters can be used to create 2D and 3D light distributions near the focus
