Abstract
An imaging device includes a light separator configured to separate light into a plurality of light bands. The imaging device further includes a plurality of imaging elements. Each of the plurality of imaging elements is configured to receive one of the plurality of light bands and to generate a corresponding signal. Each of the plurality of imaging elements has a pixel size for generating a 4K resolution image signal including at least 3840 horizontal pixels and at least 2160 vertical pixels on a display. A registration error among the plurality of imaging elements is equal to or less than a threshold of 20% of a pixel size in the plurality of image elements.
