Plenoptic camera

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A plenoptic camera is a camera that uses a microlens array (also known as a lenticular lens array) to capture 3d information about a scene.

The microlens sits between the lens of the camera and the image sensor. It refocuses light onto the image sensor.
