Patent attributes
Systems, devices, and methods for collection, editing, and playback of data collected from an imaging system for generating a virtual perspective of a scene are disclosed. In one example perspective, an imaging system includes a camera array configured to capture multiple images of a scene. Each of the multiple images includes color data represented in a Bayer pattern that includes a blue channel, two green channels, and a red channel. The system also includes an image processing device configured to receive the multiple images captured by the camera array, split each of the multiple images represented in the Bayer pattern into four individual color planes, form at least one set of data by combining the four individual color planes of the multiple images, and compress the at least one set of data.
