Abstract
Systems and techniques are provided for imaging processing. For instance, a process can include obtaining image data for a scene from an image sensor, wherein the image data includes image information for a plurality of sub-images, and wherein the image sensor is configured to obtain images using a meta-lens array including a plurality of meta-lenses; determining depth information for the scene based on the image information for the plurality of sub-images; and outputting information based on the determined depth information.
Claims21
An apparatus comprising:
- a meta-lens array including a plurality of meta-lenses;
