Abstract

A camera comprising: an aperture; an image sensor comprising a plurality of pairs of pixels where in each pair: a first pixel is configured such that it detects radiation which has entered the camera through the aperture to the image sensor via a first radiation path, and a second pixel is configured such that it detects radiation which has entered the camera through the aperture to the image sensor via a second radiation path, the second radiation path being different from the first radiation path; and a filter arranged in the vicinity of the aperture, wherein the filter comprises a first portion configured to block IR-radiation or visible light and a second portion configured to be transparent to wavelengths that are blocked by the first portion, wherein radiation passing the first portion travels to the first pixels, and radiation passing the second portion travels to the second pixels.
