Abstract
A coded localization system includes a plurality of optical channels arranged to cooperatively capture information from a scene. Each optical channel includes (i) a respective multi-pixel detector and (ii) a respective localization code, located between the respective multi-pixel detector and the scene, that modifies electromagnetic energy passing therethrough. Each localization code (i) includes at least one of an amplitude mask, a phase mask, and a polarizer, and (ii) differs from the respective localization code of each other of the plurality of optical channels.
