Processing Multi-Aperture Image Data

摘要

A method and a system for processing multi-aperture image data are described, wherein the method comprises: capturing image data associated with one or more objects by simultaneously exposing an image sensor in an imaging system to spectral energy associated with at least a first part of the electromagnetic spectrum using at least a first aperture and to spectral energy associated with at least a second part of the electromagnetic spectrum using at least a second and third aperture; generating first image data associated with said first part of the electromagnetic spectrum and second image data associated with said second part of the electromagnetic spectrum; and, generating depth information associated with said captured image on the basis displacement information in said second image data, preferably on the basis of displacement information in an auto-correlation function of the high-frequency image data associated with said second image data.

1. A multi-aperture imaging system, comprising:
an optical imaging system with a first aperture that passes a first wavelength region and a second aperture that passes a different second wavelength region, wherein the first and second apertures are non-overlapping, the optical imaging system generating a first image in the first wavelength region and a second image in the second wavelength region; and a single image sensor that captures both the first and second images.
