We present the development of a single shot interferometric system based on polarization and diffractive elements recovered from spare computers. The use of salvaged lenses, beam splitter cubes and linear polarizers lower the cost of our system in comparison with those already reported. Our system is also capable of dynamic phase measurements with an accuracy comparable to similar implementations with high end manufactured optics. We report here our results obtained from four simultaneous interference patterns. The presented interferometer can be easily implemented for various applications in single shot polarizing phase shifting interferometry.
