Abstract:
1. A 3D image capture device comprising: a light transmitting section with first and second light transmitting areas; an image sensor which is arranged to receive light that has been transmitted through the light transmitting section and which has an imaging area where a plurality of unit blocks, each including a first type of pixel and a second type of pixel, are arranged; an imaging section which produces an image on the imaging area of the image sensor; and an image processing section which generates multi-viewpoint images based on photoelectrically converted signals supplied from the first and second types of pixels, wherein if functions representing the respective spectral transmittances of the first light transmitting area, the second light transmitting area, the first type of pixel, and the second type of pixel with respect to the wavelength λ of visible radiation are identified by TL(λ), TR(λ), T TL(λ)≠TR(λ) and T each of TL(λ), TR(λ), T
