Cortical columns interact through dynamic routing of neuronal activity. To monitor these interactions, we developed the Multiplane Mesoscope which combines three established microscopy technologies: time-division multiplexing, remote focusing, and random-access mesoscopy. The Multiplane Mesoscope allowed us to study cortical column interactions in excitatory and inhibitory subpopulations in behaving mice. We found that distinct cortical subnetworks represent expected and unexpected events, suggesting that expectation violations modify signal routing across cortical columns, and establishing the Multiplane Mesoscope as a unique platform to study signal routing.

We enhanced the resolution characteristics of a threedimensional (3D) image using time-division multiplexing methods in a full-parallax multi-view 3D display. A time-division light-ray shifting (TDLS) method is proposed that uses two polarization gratings (PGs). As PG changes the diffraction direction of light rays according to the polarization state of the incident light, this method can shift light rays approximately 7 mm in a diagonal direction by switching the polarization state of incident light and adjusting the distance between the PGs. We verified the effect on the characteristics of 3D images based on the extent of the shift. As a result, the resolution of a 3D image with depth is improved by shifting half a pitch of a multi-view image using the TDLS method, and the resolution of the image displayed near the screen is improved by shifting half a pixel of each viewpoint image with a wobbling method. These methods can easily enhance 3D characteristics with a small number of projectors.
