Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes accessing first image data generated by a first image sensor having a first filter array that has a first filter pattern. The first filter pattern includes a number of first filter types. The method also includes accessing second image data generated by a second image sensor having a second filter array that has a second filter pattern different from the first filter pattern. The second filter pattern includes a number of second filter types, the number of second filter types and the number of first filter types have at least one filter type in common. The method also includes determining a correspondence between one or more first pixels of the first image data and one or more second pixels of the second image data based on a portion of the first image data associated with the filter type in common.
