IMAGING DEVICE WITH IMAGE DISPERSING TO CREATE A SPATIALLY CODED IMAGE

摘要

An image capturing device (202) can include a sensor array (210), a lens (230) positioned at a first distance from an intermediate image (235), and apolychromat (220) positioned at a second distance from the lens (230). The poly chro mat (220) can diffract the intermediate image (235) according to a transform function (207) to produce a dispersed sensor image (215) onto the sensor array (210). The dispersed sensor image (215) can represent a spatial code of the intermediate image (235).
