    摘要: A spectrometer for use with a desired wavelength range includes an array of filters. Each filter outputs at least two non-contiguous wavelength peaks within the desired wavelength range. The array of filters is spectrally diverse over the desired wavelength range, and each filter in the array of filters outputs a spectrum of a first resolution. An array of detectors has a detector for receiving an output of a corresponding filter. A processor receives signals from each detector, and outputs a reconstructed spectrum having a second resolution, the second resolution being higher than any of the first resolution of each filter. Filters and detectors may be arranged into a plurality of imaging units, each imaging unit including first and second filters and first and second photosensing regions. A processor receives signals from each imaging unit, and generates a reconstructed spatial image comprised of discrete spatial units corresponding to each imaging unit.
