Abstract

A color filter is provided for use with an imager which has a plurality of discrete collection sites. The filter has a plurality of color filter elements arranged in rows aligned with the collection sites. Two elements of the filter overlay a scan line of the imager in one television field, and each of the rows has a repeating sequence, e.g., 6, of at least two independent colors. The adjacent rows in the filter have their color sequences shifted by two elements. A demultiplexing scheme is disclosed, which features a high-frequency luminance signal having a constant colorimetric composition.
