Generalized Image Acquisition and Analysis
Three-Dimensional Kaleidoscopic Imaging
Planar mirror systems are capable of generating many virtual views, yet their
practical use for multi-view imaging has been hindered by limiting configurations that enable
view decomposition. In this work we lift those restrictions.

State of the Art in Computational Plenoptic Imaging

Abstract
The plenoptic function is a ray-based model for light that includes the color spectrum as well as spatial,
temporal, and directional variation. Although digital light sensors have greatly evolved in the last years,
one fundamental limitation remains: all standard CCD and CMOS sensors integrate over the dimensions of the
plenoptic function as they convert photons into electrons; in the process, all visual information is irreversibly
lost, except for a two-dimensional, spatially-varying subset - the common photograph. In this state of the
art report, we review approaches that optically encode the dimensions of the plenpotic function transcending
those captured by traditional photography and reconstruct the recorded information computationally.
