“…Several researchers have utilized a direct approach using multiple cameras [11,12] or a camera mounted on a moving gantry, which is costly in terms of the hardware or the time required to capture an entire LF. To make the acquisition process more efficient, lens arraybased cam eras [5], coded aperture cameras [13,14,15,16], and coded mask cameras [17,18,15] have been investigated. Lens array based cameras enable singleshot acquisition of an entire LF at the cost of the spatial resolution for each viewpoint; in prin ciple, U × V views are obtained in 1/U × 1/V spatial reso lution of the image sensor.…”
