Abstract
A stereo-image capturing device comprises an on-chip color filter attached CCD, a photographing optical system, and an aperture disk. The on-chip color filter comprises red (R), green (G), and blue (B) color filters, so that the CCD senses images in R, G, and B colors. The photographing optical system produces R, G, and B color images of a subject on the imaging surface of the CCD. The aperture disk has three apertures and they have R, G, and B color filters.

A stereo-image capturing device, comprising:
- an image-sensing system that is able to sense a first subject image produced of light beams in a first spectrum and a second subject image produced of light beams in a second spectrum;
- a photographing optical system that produces said first and second subject images in said image-sensing system;
- and
- an aperture member that comprises first and second apertures;
- wherein said first aperture is fitted with a first optical filter which selectively transmit light beams of said first spectrum and said second aperture is fitted with a second optical filter which selectively transmit light beams of said second spectrum.
