We report the first computational super-resolved, multi-camera integral
imaging at long-wave infrared (LWIR) wavelengths. A synchronized array of FLIR
Lepton cameras was assembled, and computational super-resolution and
integral-imaging reconstruction employed to generate video with light-field
imaging capabilities, such as 3D imaging and recognition of partially obscured
objects, while also providing a four-fold increase in effective pixel count.
This approach to high-resolution imaging enables a fundamental reduction in the
track length and volume of an imaging system, while also enabling use of
low-cost lens materials.Comment: Supplementary multimedia material in
