SENSOR WITH MULTI-PERSPECTIVE IMAGE CAPTURE

摘要

The invention discloses an image acquisition system with a modified image sensor that enables simultaneous capture of at least two images with different perspectives. The pixels are split into two or more subsets of pixels under a series of cylindrical microlenses or linear light guides. The cylindrical microlenses or linear light guides limit the radiation to impinge upon first and second subsets of pixels under each microlens or light guide to come from only one half or the other half of the imaging lens so that stereo image sets are produced.
