Claim 10:
11. A computer system that generates a high resolution full color image from lower resolution sparse color images, said computer system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one hardware storage device that stores instructions that are executable by the at least one processor to cause the computer system to:
filter multiple sparse color images, wherein filtering the multiple sparse color images results in generation of a red-only image, a green-only image, a blue-only image, and a monochrome image;
up-sample the red-only image, the green-only image, and the blue-only image to cause (i) a first resolution of the red-only image, (ii) a second resolution of the green-only image, and (iii) a third resolution of the blue-only image to match a fourth resolution of the monochrome image; and
generate a high resolution color image by combining the up-sampled red-only image, the up-sampled green-only image, the up-sampled blue-only image, and the monochrome image.
