We investigate configurations of the optical field whose structure is mathematically equivalent to that of entangled quantum systems [1]. Specifically, we consider the radially polarized beam, whose polarization and transverse spatial degrees of freedom (DOF) inherently display an entangled structure [2,3]. As a consequence, a spatial obstruction of the beam may be detected by measurements on the polarization DOF alone. Leveraging this idea, we demonstrate position tracking of a moving particle with GHz temporal resolution.
