New Light Pollution Filtration Systems

I ran across this article claiming that LED lights can be filtered out of telescopes, published in Space.com


https://www.space.com/astronomy-ligh...reetlight-hack

Being honest I cannot see how it could possibly work, as individual LED lights are not in phase with one another normally. Certainly from Grid to Grid, phase lock is not possible in my view.
If anything this if it works, is a masking technique which would increase exposure time required for the special, ie expensive new cameras required. It does nothing about Starlink and other Sat pollution.

Comments?
