Abstract: A color light field imaging sensor array for use as a lensless imaging camera, tactile or proximate gesture user interface, image display, or combination. Each sensor array pixel comprises groups of at least three LEDs, OLEDs, or similar devices having differing emission color wavelengths configured to provide light amplitude measurement signals. For each pixel, a first output signal is produced by subtracting a function of the light amplitude measurement signal from an LED of a mid-value color wavelength from a function of a light amplitude measurement signal from an LED of a higher-value color wavelength. A second output signal is produced by subtracting a function of a light amplitude measurement signal from lower-value color wavelength LED from a function of the light amplitude measurement signal obtained from mid-value color wavelength LED. A third output signal is produced from function of light amplitude measurement signal associated with lowest-value color wavelength LED.
