Patent ID: 7978252

Claim:
An imaging system comprising: an imaging apparatus and a processing device, wherein the imaging apparatus includes an imaging element able to capture an object aberration dispersed image passing through an optical system and an optical wavefront modulation element which disperses the image and the dispersed image being not focused anywhere on the imaging element, a convolution coefficient specifying information providing portion providing coefficient specifying information for specifying the convolution coefficient, and a transmission portion transmitting object aberration dispersed image data obtained from the imaging element and the coefficient specifying information provided by the convolution coefficient specifying information providing portion, and the processing device includes a reception portion receiving the object aberration dispersed image data and the coefficient specifying information transmitted by the transmission portion of the imaging apparatus, a processing device side storage portion storing a plurality of convolution coefficients, a coefficient selection portion selecting one convolution coefficient from the processing device side storage portion based on the coefficient specifying information received by the reception portion, and a conversion portion generating the aberration-free-and-dispersion-free object image by converting the object aberration dispersed image data received by the reception portion by the one convolution coefficient selected at the coefficient selection portion.
