Abstract:
1. A 3D image capture device comprising: a light-transmitting section with m transmitting areas (where m is an integer that is equal to or greater than two)—whose transmittances have mutually different wavelength dependences; a solid-state image sensor which is arranged to receive light that has been transmitted through the light-transmitting section and which includes a photosensitive cell array and a transmitting filter array that is arranged to face the photosensitive cell array, wherein the photosensitive cell array and the transmitting filter array are comprised of multiple unit elements, each of which includes n photosensitive cells (where n is an integer that is equal to or greater than m) and n transmitting filters which are arranged to face the n photosensitive cells and whose transmittances have mutually different wavelength dependences; and an imaging section which produces an image on an imaging area of the solid-state image sensor, wherein supposing the wavelength is λ, functions representing the transmittances of two arbitrary ones of the m transmitting areas are Tc ∫Tc ∫Tc ∫Tc ∫Tc ∫Tc ≠∫Tc are satisfied.
