XSlit Camera
- Detailed Technology Description
- The invention collects rays thatsimultaneously pass through two oblique (neither parallel nor coplanar) slitsin 3D space. A cylindrical lens is asection of a cylinder that focuses rays passing through it onto a line parallelto the intersection of the surface of the lens and a plane tangent to it. The lens compresses the image in thedirection perpendicular to this line, and leaves it unaltered in the directionparallel to it (in the tangent plane). We then concatenate two layers of cylindrical lenses to synthesize anXSlit lens. To further increase theXSlit camera’s depth-of-field, we couple the lens with slit-shaped apertures.
