Methods, Apparatus, and Computer-Readable Storage Media for Depth-Based Rendering of Focused Plenoptic Camera Data

摘要

Methods, apparatus, and computer-readable storage media for rendering focused plenoptic camera data. A depth-based rendering technique is described that estimates depth at each microimage and then applies that depth to determine a position in the input flat from which to read a value to be assigned to a given point in the output image. The techniques may be implemented according to parallel processing technology that renders multiple points of the output image in parallel. In at least some embodiments, the parallel processing technology is graphical processing unit (GPU) technology.
