Abstract
In the field of computer imaging an integrated consideration of image acquisition and image processing is leading to important new optical systems. Illustrative of these novel systems is our highly successful effort to extend the depth of field of high quality digital camera systems by more than an order of magnitude. We describe this research and exploratory development at The Institute of Optics starting around 2001 and continuing into an extensive pre-production effort at a small local company George, Gabel and Connerso Inc. that transitioned to Micron and Aptina in San Jose.
