Abstract
A system for generating a stereoscopic image pair comprising a split color filter with complementary colors located at a stop associated with a lens and configured to split an image of a scene received from the lens into two complementary images having complementary colors, a color image sensor configured to simultaneously receive the two complementary images; and a data processing system configured compute an offset value for each corresponding pixel in the complementary images and generate a stereoscopic full color image pair based upon an analysis of the complementary images and the offset values.
