Abstract: In accordance with an aspect of the invention, a method of manufacturing, on a waver scale, a plurality of optical devices comprises the steps of providing a wafer scale spacer with a plurality of holes arranged in a hole pattern at the positions of camera modules, providing a wafer scale substrate with an infrared (IR) filter that is patterned to comprise a plurality of IR filter sections, the IR filter sections being arranged in an IR filter pattern that is such that radiation paths through the substrate and onto the camera modules go through the IR filter sections, and stacking the substrate and the spacer on each other with the holes and the filter sections being aligned.
