Abstract
An imaging system is configured to identify an object represented by a plurality of preliminary images. The preliminary images are each associated with a different camera imaging channel, and include different image information. An object distance is determined based on the difference in preliminary image information. An object shift is determined based on the object distance and a pre-determined relationship between object shift and object distance. The object shift is applied to the portions of one or more preliminary images representing the object to form shifted preliminary images, and the shifted preliminary images are combined to form a final image.
