Systems and methods for an imaging system using multiple image sensors

An imaging method, comprising:

• obtaining luminance data of a scene using a first image sensor;
• obtaining chrominance data of the scene using a second image sensor;
• obtaining three-dimensional data of the scene using a third image sensor;
• processing the luminance data, the chrominance data and the three-dimensional data to generate a composite image corresponding to the scene;
• generating an alignment transform that accounts for differences in alignment of the first, second and third image sensors wherein generating the alignment transform comprises a calibration;
• and
• applying the alignment transform after the calibration to provide epipolar geometry alignment and disparity compensation wherein applying the alignment transform comprises processing the disparity compensation in real time using the three-dimensional data received in real time wherein the three-dimensional data includes at least one of distance data of the scene or depth data of the scene.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including stored instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:

• obtain luminance data of a scene;
• obtain chrominance data of of the scene;
• obtain three-dimensional data of the scene;
• process the luminance data, the chrominance data and the three-dimensional data to generate a composite image corresponding to the scene;
• generate an alignment transform that accounts for differences in alignment of the first, second and third image sensors wherein generating the alignment transform comprises a calibration;
• and
• apply the alignment transform after the calibration to provide epipolar geometry alignment and disparity compensation wherein applying the alignment transform comprises processing the disparity compensation in real time using the three-dimensional data received in real time wherein the three-dimensional data includes at least one of distance data of the scene or depth data of the scene.
