Abstract
A process and an apparatus for the plenoptic capture of photographic or cinematographic images of an object or a 3D scene () of interest are based on a correlated light emitting source and correlation measurement, along the line of 'Correlation Plenoptic Imaging' (CPI). A first image sensor (Da) and a second image sensor (Db) detect images along a path of a first light beam (a) and a second light beam (b), respectively. A processing unit () of the intensities detected by the synchronized image sensors (Da, Db) is configured to retrieve the propagation direction of light by measuring spatio-temporal correlations between light intensities detected in the image planes of at least two arbitrary planes (P', P″; D′b, D″a) chosen in the vicinity of the object or within the 3D scene ().
