    Abstract: To produce both 2D image data and color parallax image data from image data output from a single-plate image sensor, the resolutions of the 2D image data and parallax image data may be both degraded. The image sensor has a primitive lattice that is a group of pixels including (i) at least four types of parallax pixels formed by photoelectric converter elements each of which is associated with one of combinations of two different types of aperture masks and two different types of color filters and (ii) no-parallax pixels configured to guide an incident luminous flux to photoelectric converter elements without limitation. In the group of pixels, the no-parallax pixels are more than the parallax pixels.

    Abstract: A technique is disclosed to obtain first image data including a first pixel value of a first pixel having a no-parallax opening corresponding to a reference direction, a second pixel value of a second pixel having a parallax opening that causes parallax in one direction and a third pixel value of a third pixel having a parallax opening that causes parallax in the opposite direction, to calculate, for a pixel position of the second pixel, a fourth pixel value by averaging the second pixel value at the pixel position and a hypothetical third pixel value and to calculate, for a pixel position of the third pixel, a fifth pixel value by averaging the third pixel value at the pixel position and a hypothetical second pixel value, and to use the first pixel value, the fourth pixel value and the fifth pixel value to produce 2D second image data.

    Abstract: With a conventional stereoimage capturing device, it has been difficult to simply determine the present of a depth. An image capturing device includes an image capturing element in which a first parallax pixel group and a second parallax pixel group that output a first parallax image and a second parallax image, respectively, to cause a parallax are arranged at mutually different positions. The image capturing device computes a differential pixel value of each of a plurality of second parallax output pixels in the second parallax image positioned around a target pixel that is a first parallax output pixel of the first parallax image, the differential pixel value being computed with reference to the target pixel, and generates differential data in which a direction of each of the plurality of second parallax output pixels with reference to the target pixel is associated with the corresponding differential pixel value.

    Abstract: To obtain image data including a parallax in the vertical direction and image data including a parallax in the horizontal direction, it has been necessary to prepare imaging devices individually at the positions corresponding to the respective viewpoints. Hence, provided is an image processing element including: photoelectric converting elements that are arranged two-dimensionally and convert incident light to electric signals, respectively; and aperture masks provided on the photoelectric converting elements, wherein photoelectric converting element groups each including n photoelectric converting elements are arranged cyclically where n is an integer equal to or larger than 4, and apertures in the aperture masks are positioned lopsidedly to be axisymmetric to each other with respect to each of two orthogonal axes defined on the two-dimensional arrangement of each photoelectric converting element group.
