Abstract

We propose to improve the depth of field of Integral Imaging systems by combining an array of phase masks with the traditional lenslet array. We show that obtained elemental images are sharp over a larger range than with a regular lenslet array. We further increase the quality of elemental images by a digital restauration. Computer simulations of pickup and reconstruction are presented.
