Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for generating a synthetic 2D image with an enhanced depth of field of an object. It is described to acquire ( 110 ) with an image acquisition unit ( 20 ) first image data at a first lateral position of the object and second image data at a second lateral position of the object. The image acquisition unit is used to acquire ( 120 ) third image data at the first lateral position and fourth image data at the second lateral position, wherein the third image data is acquired at a down range distance that is different than that for the first image data and the fourth image data is acquired at a down range distance that is different than that for the second image data. First working image data is generated ( 130 ) for the first lateral position, the generation comprising processing the first image data and the third image data by a focus stacking algorithm. Second working image data is generated ( 140 ) for the second lateral position, the generation comprising processing the second image data and the fourth image data by the focus stacking algorithm. The first working image data and the second working image data are combined ( 150 ), during acquisition of image data, to generate the synthetic  2 D image with an enhanced depth of field of the object.

Claim (Index 5):
Apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the image acquisition unit is configured to acquire the first image data at the first lateral position of the object and at a first down range distance and to simultaneously acquire the second image at the second lateral position of the object and at a second down range distance, wherein the first down range distance is different to the second down range distance; and wherein the image acquisition unit is configured to acquire the third image data at the first lateral position and at a third down range distance and to simultaneously acquire the fourth image data at the second lateral position and at a fourth down range distance, wherein the third down range distance is different to the fourth down range distance.
