Abstract
Correlation plenoptic imaging (CPI) is a technique capable of acquiring the light field emerging from a scene of interest, namely, the combined information of intensity and propagation direction of light. This is achieved by evaluating correlations between the photon numbers measured by two high-resolution detectors. Volumetric information about the object of interest is decoded, through data analysis, from the measured four-dimensional correlation function. In this paper, we investigate the relevant aspects of the refocusing algorithm, a post-processing method that isolates the image of a selected transverse plane within the 3D scene, once applied to the correlation function. In particular, we aim at bridging the gap between existing literature, which only deals with refocusing algorithms in case of continuous coordinates, and the experimental reality, in which the correlation function is available as a discrete quantity defined on the sensors pixels.
