Abstract:
A hybrid optical sensor array includes a first and second set of pixels having differing spectral sensitivities. A first set of data for a scene is captured by the first set of pixels at a first resolution, and a second set of data for the scene is captured by a second set of pixels at a second resolution. The first set of data is demosaiced based on at least the second set of data. A third set of data for the scene is output at a third resolution, greater than the first resolution. This allows high resolution matching images to be produced without perspective or timing discrepancies inherent in multi-camera machine vision systems.
