Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for splitting light received from at least one subject into at least first and second components of light, converting the first component of light into a first electrical signal representing a base image of the at least one subject, dispersing the second component of light into at least a right component of light and a left component of light; converting the right component of light into a second electrical signal representing a right detection image at a first angle; and converting the left component of light into a third electrical signal representing a left detection image at a second angle different from the first angle. Additionally, the right detection image may be used to transform the base image into a right parallax image, and the left detection image may be used to transform the base image into a left parallax image.
