DEMOSAICING RGBZ SENSOR

摘要

According to one general aspect, an apparatus may include an image sensor, a monochromatic pixel reconstruction engine, and a demosaicing engine. The image sensor may be configured to capture, at least in part, an image. The image sensor may include a plurality of first sensors configured to generate captured monochromatic pixel values, and a plurality of second sensors configured to not generate captured monochromatic pixel values. The plurality of second sensors may be dispersed amongst the plurality of first sensors such that portions of the image are not captured by the image sensor. The monochromatic pixel reconstruction engine may be configured to estimate an estimated monochromatic pixel value for each second sensor. The demosaicing engine may be configured to, via a color selective adaptive technique, generate a polychromatic image based upon the captured monochromatic pixel values and the estimated monochromatic pixel values.
