Image processing system and image processing method

Abstract

This image processing system (1) comprises: an optical element (12) having a fine structure; an imaging element (11) that receives light that has arrived via the optical element (12); and a perturbation unit (30) that perturbs one of the configurations related to the light reception by the imaging element (11).

Claims

1. An image processing system characterized by comprising: an optical element having a microstructure; an image sensor that receives light that has arrived through the optical element; and a perturbation unit that perturbs one of the components involved in receiving light by the image sensor.

2. The image processing system according to claim 1, characterized in that the perturbation unit perturbs one of the components involved in receiving light by the image sensor in the spatial direction by translation or rotation, and the image sensor performs a plurality of different images in the spatial direction in response to the perturbation by the perturbation unit.

3. The image processing system according to claim 1, characterized in that the perturbation unit perturbs the optical element in the spatial direction.

4. An image processing system according to claim 1, having an opening disposed between the object to be imaged and the image sensor, wherein the perturbation unit perturbs the opening in the spatial direction.

5. An image processing system according to claim 1, comprising: a reconstruction processing model that takes an image as input and outputs an output image which is a hyperspectral image, wherein the image captured by the optical element and the image sensor is input to the reconstruction processing model, and the reconstruction processing model outputs a hyperspectral image with a greater number of bands than the captured image, thereby generating a hyperspectral image from the captured image.

6. An image processing method characterized by comprising an imaging step in which the reception of light by an image sensor that has arrived via an optical element having a microstructure is performed by perturbing one of the components involved in the reception of light by the image sensor.
