Abstract

Aspects relate to an array camera exhibiting little or no parallax artifacts in captured images. For example, the planes of the central prism of the array camera can intersect at an apex defining the vertical axis of symmetry of the system. The apex can serve as a point of intersection for the optical axes of the sensors in the array. Each sensor in the array 'sees' a portion of the image scene using a corresponding facet of the central prism, and accordingly each individual sensor/facet pair represents only a sub-aperture of the total array camera. The complete array camera has a synthetic aperture generated based on the sum of all individual aperture rays.
