Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatuses for a hyperspectral plenoptic camera. A hyperspectral plenoptic camera may be configured with a filter in the aperture plane of the camera. The filter may selectively transmit radiated wavelengths to a microlens array, which may focus and transmit the wavelengths to an image sensor based on, e.g., the location and intensity of the wavelengths. One or more lenses and/or an iris may be configured to collect, focus, and/or transmit wavelengths to and from the filter. The filter may be located between two lenses, and the distance between the two lenses may be based on a diameter of an aperture of the plenoptic camera.
