Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for generating a high resolution image from a plurality of images captured from a plurality of sensors. The pixels in one sensor have at least one of different size, shape, or orientation than pixels in another sensor. The difference in size, shape, or orientation of the pixels and the interconnection of pixels on respective sensors provides a high level of certainty that there will be sufficient difference in the captured images, with limited loss in image content, to generate a relatively high resolution image from the images captured by the respective sensors.
