Abstract
An apparatus and a system, as well as a method and an article, may include receiving a plurality of left eye rays through a first plurality of separating facets of a lens at an image acquisition plane, and receiving a plurality of right eye rays through a second plurality of separating facets of the lens at the image acquisition plane. Data acquired from the image plane may be used to construct a stereoscopic image, including a moving, panoramic stereoscopic image. Lenses, image capture devices, and projectors may be implemented that operate using multiple viewpoints.
