Light field super resolution through controlled micro-shifts of light field sensor
Light field cameras enable new capabilities, such as post-capture refocusing
and aperture control, through capturing directional and spatial distribution of
light rays in space. Micro-lens array based light field camera design is often
preferred due to its light transmission efficiency, cost-effectiveness and
compactness. One drawback of the micro-lens array based light field cameras is
low spatial resolution due to the fact that a single sensor is shared to
capture both spatial and angular information. To address the low spatial
resolution issue, we present a light field imaging approach, where multiple
light fields are captured and fused to improve the spatial resolution. For each
capture, the light field sensor is shifted by a pre-determined fraction of a
micro-lens size using an XY translation stage for optimal performance
