Stereo Applications Need a Dedicated Lens Choosing

Single Lens Stereo with a Plenoptic Camera

Ordinary cameras gather light across the area of their lens aperture, and the light striking a given subregion of the aperture is structured somewhat differently than the light striking an adjacent subregion. By analyzing this optical structure, one can infer the depths of objects in the scene, i.e., one can achieve “single lens stereo.” We describe a novel camera for performing this analysis. ...

Panoramic Lens Applications Revisited

During the last few years, innovative optical design strategies to generate and control image mapping have been successful in producing high-resolution digital imagers and projectors. This new generation of panoramic lenses includes catadioptric panoramic lenses, panoramic annular lenses, visible/IR fisheye lenses, anamorphic wide-angle attachments, and visible/IR panomorph lenses. Given that a...
