Using the techniques discussed herein, a set of images is captured by one or more array imagers (106). Each array imager includes multiple imagers configured in various manners. Each array imager captures multiple images of substantially a same scene at substantially a same time. The images captured by each array image are encoded by multiple processors (112, 114). Each processor can encode sets of images captured by a different array imager, or each processor can encode different sets of images captured by the same array imager. The encoding of the images is performed using various image-compression techniques so that the information that results from the encoding is smaller, in terms of storage size, than the uncompressed images. |

1. On an electronic device, a method for image encoding, the method comprising:
capturing, by a first array imager on the electronic device, a first set of images, the first set of images comprising a plurality of images, the first set of images being captured substantially simultaneously, the first set of images being of substantially the same scene; encoding, by a first processor on the electronic device, information representing the first set of images; capturing, by a second array imager on the electronic device, a second set of images, the second set of images comprising a plurality of images, the second set of images captured substantially simultaneously, the second set of images being of substantially the same scene; and encoding, by a second processor on the electronic device, the second processor distinct from the first processor, information representing the second set of images. |
