LIGHT FIELD FILTER

摘要

According to some examples, a lens apparatus includes a plurality of near-field spatial filters, each of the near-field spatial filters including a first near-field lens that includes a first focal length, a second near-field lens that includes a second focal length, and a first plate that includes a pin-hole, the first plate being disposed between the first near-field lens and the second near-field lens such that the pin-hole in the first plate is substantially at a point where a focus of the first near-field lens and a focus of the second near-field lens substantially coincide based at least in part on the first focal length and the second focal length. The lens apparatus further includes a plurality of far-field spatial filters optically coupled to the plurality of near-field spatial filters, each of the far-field spatial filters including a first field lens that includes a third focal length, a second far-field lens that includes a fourth focal length, and a second plate that includes a pin-hole, the second plate being disposed between the first far-field lens and the second far-field lens such that the pin-hole in the second pin-hole plate is substantially at a point where a focus of the first far-field lens and a focus of the second far-field lens substantially coincide based at least in part on the third focal length and the fourth focal length, and wherein the third focal length and the fourth focal length are different than either of the first focal length and the second focal length.

1. A lens apparatus, comprising:
a plurality of near-field spatial filters, at least some of the near-field spatial filters including a first near-field lens that includes a first focal length, a second near-field lens that includes a second focal length, and a first plate that includes a pin-hole, the first plate being disposed between the first near-field lens and the second near-field lens such that the pin-hole in the first plate is located substantially at a point where a focus of the first near-field lens and a focus of the second near-field lens substantially coincide based at least in part on the first focal length and the second focal length; and a plurality of far-field spatial filters optically coupled to the plurality of near-field spatial filters, at least some of the far-field spatial filters including a first far-field lens that includes a third focal length, a second far-field lens that includes a fourth focal length, and a second plate that includes a pin-hole, the second plate being disposed between the first far-field lens and the second far-field lens such that the pin-hole in the second plate is located substantially at a point where a focus of the first far-field lens and a focus of the second far-field lens substantially coincide based at least in part on the third focal length and the fourth focal length, and wherein the third focal length and the fourth focal length are different than either of the first focal length and the second focal length.
