Patent number: 10184830Abstract: Apparatus and method for obtaining a plurality of spectral images of a source object in a snapshot using comprising two-dimensional compressed sensing data cube reconstruction (2D CS-SCR) applied to a dispersed-diffused snapshot image. In some embodiments, the snapshot image is obtained through a RIP diffuser. In some embodiments, a randomizer is used to further randomized the dispersed-diffused snapshot image. The 2D CS-SCR includes applying a 2D framelet transform separately to arrays representing different wavebands of spectral cube data derived from the snapshot image. The application of the 2D framelet transform separately to the arrays representing the different wavebands includes application of direct and inverse 2D framelet transforms to the arrays. In some embodiments, the direct and inverse framelet transforms are included in a split Bregman iteration.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2017Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Inventors: Michael Golub, Amir Averbuch, Menachem Nathan, Valery Zheludev

Patent number: 9894336Abstract: Monochromatic cameras and methods for using such cameras to obtain a still or video color image of an object or scene. The image sensor of such cameras is clear, without a color filter array. A diffused-dispersed and optionally randomized image of the object or scene obtained at the image sensor is processed directly into a number R<K of spectral images in R wavebands. K?R spectral images are interpolated from the R spectral images. A color image is then reconstructed using the directly processed R spectral images and the K?R interpolated spectral images. The interpolated images may exemplarily be obtained using a spline subdivision algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2014Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: Ramot at Tel-Aviv University LtdInventors: Amir Averbuch, Michael Golub, Menachem Nathan, Roman Malinsky, Valery Zheludev
