Implementations generally increase the virtual resolution of a camera sensor. In some implementations, a method includes moving an image sensor in a predetermined pattern, wherein the image sensor includes an array of light collecting elements, and wherein each light collecting element of the sensor array cycles through a plurality of positions in the predetermined pattern. The method further includes capturing a plurality of samples of light at each light collecting element, wherein each light collecting element captures a plurality of the samples in a cycle of movement in the predetermined pattern. The method further includes converting each sample captured at each position into a value. The method further includes generating at least one image from an aggregate of values converted from the samples of light.
