Abstract
Embodiments are generally directed to a camera to capture multiple sub-images for the generation of an image. An embodiment of a camera assembly includes one or more lenses to transmit light from a scene, and an image sensor to simultaneously capture a plurality of sub-images of the scene via the one or more lenses, the plurality of sub-images including a first sub-image and a second sub-image. A processing element is to process the sub-images sensed by the image sensor, the processing of the sub-images includes combining at least the first sub-image and the second sub-image to generate a combined image of the scene.
