    Abstract: There is provided an image capturing apparatus that captures a plurality of images, calculates a three-dimensional position from the plurality of images, and outputs the plurality of images and information about the three-dimensional position. The image capturing apparatus includes an image capturing unit, a camera parameter storage unit, a position calculation unit, a position selection unit, and an image complementing unit. The image capturing unit outputs the plurality of images using at least three cameras. The camera parameter storage unit stores in advance camera parameters including occlusion information. The position calculation unit calculates three dimensional positions of a plurality of points. The position selection unit selects a piece of position information relating to a subject area that does not have an occlusion, and outputs selected position information. The image complementing unit generates a complementary image, and outputs the complementary image and the selected position information.

    Abstract: A disparity estimation device calculates, for each of first pixels of a first image and each of second pixels of a second image, a first census feature amount and a second census feature amount, calculates, for each of the first pixels, a first disparity value of the first pixel with integer accuracy, extracts, for each of the first pixels, reference pixels located in positions corresponding to the first disparity value and a near disparity value close to the first disparity value from the second pixels, calculates sub-pixel evaluation values based on the relationship between the pixel values of the first pixel and the neighboring pixel and the pixel values of each of the reference pixels and the neighboring pixel, and estimates a second disparity value of the first pixel with sub-pixel accuracy by equiangular fitting.

    Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes an imaging optical system that forms an optical signal, an imaging device that includes a plurality of pixels and that converts the optical signal formed on the plurality of pixels into an electrical signal, a color filter that is arranged between the imaging optical system and the imaging device and that has a different optical transmittance for each of the plurality of pixels and each of a plurality of wavelength ranges, and a transmission data compression circuit that compresses the electrical signal obtained by the imaging device. The sum of products of an optical transmittance group relating to a plurality of optical transmittances of the color filter for each of the plurality of pixels in the plurality of wavelength ranges and coefficients common to the plurality of pixels is the same between the plurality of pixels.

    Abstract: In an imaging device, a difference calculation unit calculates a differential signal between charge signals that have been accumulated and are held by first and charge holding units with different timings. A multiple sampling unit performs multiple sampling processing on the differential signal, and an analog digital conversion unit converts a signal that has undergone multiple sampling processing to a digital signal. That is, multiple sampling processing is performed on a differential signal with a higher sparsity than that of an image signal.
