Abstract

A method includes capturing, by a camera disposed behind a display panel of an electronic device, an original image through a semi-transparent pixel region of the display panel. The original image includes one or more color components. The method further includes determining, for a plurality of pixel regions of the original image, a point spread function (PSF) for each of the one or more color components. The method further includes performing, for the plurality of pixel regions of the original image, a deconvolution of each of the one or more color components of the original image based at least in part on their respective PSFs. The method thus includes generating a reconstructed image corresponding to the original image based on the deconvolutions of the one or more color components of the plurality of pixel regions of the original image.
