Abstract:

An apparatus may include an anti-color filter array proximate an array of optical sensor pixels. The anti-color filter array may include first anti-color filters. Each of the first anti-color filters may be located near a corresponding instance (or group of instances) of a first plurality of optical sensor pixels and may be configured to at least partially suppress transmission of light in a first optical wavelength range. In some examples, the first optical wavelength range may correspond to a first color. The anti-color filter array may include second anti-color filter regions, each of which may be located near a corresponding instance of a second plurality of optical sensor pixels. In some such examples, each of the second anti-color filter regions may be configured to at least partially suppress transmission of light in a second optical wavelength range.
