Abstract

Light representing a scene is directed through a lens module coupled to an imaging sensor. The lens module includes: first and second cylindrical lenses positioned along an optical axis of the imaging sensor, and first and second slit-shaped apertures disposed on the respective first and second cylindrical lenses. A cylindrical axis of the second cylindrical lens is arranged at an angle away from parallel with respect to a cylindrical axis of the first cylindrical lens. The light directed through the lens module is captured by the imaging sensor to form at least one multi-perspective image. The at least one multi-perspective image is processed to determine a reconstruction characteristic of the scene.
