The compressive sensing (CS) theory has drawn great interest in signal processing community in recent years and led to new image acquisition techniques in many different fields. This research attempts to develop a CS based underwater laser serial imaging system. A Digital Mirror Device (DMD) based system configuration is proposed. The constraints due to scattering medium are studied. A multi-scale measurement matrix design, the "model-assisted" image reconstruction concept and a volume backscattering reduction technique are proposed to mitigate such constraints.
