Dynamic image capturing apparatus and method using arbitrary viewpoint image generation technology
Embodiments relate to a dynamic image capturing method and apparatus using an arbitrary viewpoint image generation technology, in which an image of background content displayed on a background content display unit or an image of background content implemented in a virtual space through a chroma key screen, having a view matching to a view of seeing a subject at a viewpoint of a camera is generated, and a final image including the image of the background content and a subject area is obtained.
EVENT-BASED COMPUTATIONAL PIXEL IMAGERS
A computational pixel imaging device that includes an array of pixel integrated circuits for event-based detection and imaging. Each pixel may include a digital counter that accumulates a digital number, which indicates whether a change is detected by the pixel. The counter may count in one direction for a portion of an exposure and count in an opposite direction for another portion of the exposure. The imaging device may be configured to collect and transmit key frames at a lower rate, and collect and transmit delta or event frames at a higher rate. The key frames may include a full image of a scene, captured by the pixel array. The delta frames may include sparse data, captured by pixels that have detected meaningful changes in received light intensity. High speed, low transmission bandwidth motion image video can be reconstructed using the key frames and the delta frames.

IMAGING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF CREATING COMPOSITE IMAGES
An imaging system and a method of creating composite images are provided. The imaging system includes one or more lens assemblies coupled to a sensor. When reflected light from an object enters the imaging system, incident light on the metalens filter systems creates filtered light, which is turned into composite images by the corresponding sensors. Each metalens filter system focuses the light into a specific wavelength, creating the metalens images. The metalens images are sent to the processor, wherein the processor combines the metalens images into one or more composite images. The metalens images are combined into a composite image, and the composite image has reduced chromatic aberrations.
