Experimental setup

For all experiments we used a Raytrix R12 color 3D-light-field-camera, with a MLA of F/2.4 aperture. The camera is in Galilean internal configuration. The mounted lens is a a Nikon AF DC-Nikkor F/2D with a 135 mm focal length. The MLA organization is hexagonal row-aligned, and composed of 176 x 152 (width x height) micro-lenses with I = 3 different types. The sensor is a Basler beA4000-62KC with a pixel size of s = 0.0055 mm. The raw image resolution is 4080 x 3068.

Dataset

The dataset is capture at focus distance configuration h = 1500 mm.

The dataset is composed of:

  • white raw plenoptic images acquired at different apertures (N in {4, 5.66, 8, 11.31, 16}) using a light diffuser mounted on the main objective for pre-calibration step,
  • free-hand calibration targets acquired at various poses (in distance and orientation), separated into two subsets, one for the calibration process (16 images) and the other for reprojection error evaluation (15 images),
  • a white raw plenoptic image acquired in the same luminosity condition and with the same aperture as in the calibration targets acquisition for devignetting,
  • and calibration targets acquired with a controlled translation motion for quantitative evaluation, along with the depth maps computed by the Raytrix software (RxLive v4.0.50.2).

We use a 5 x 3 of 20 mm side checkerboard.

Software and setup

All images has been acquired using the free software MultiCam Studio (v6.15.1.3573) of the company Euresys. The shutter speed has been set to 5 ms. While taking white images for the pre-calibration step, the gain has been set to its maximum value. For Raytrix data, we use their proprietary software RxLive (v4.0.50.2) to calibrate the camera, and compute the depth maps used in the evaluation.

Applications

For instance, the datasets can be used with the following applications :

  • COMPOTE (Calibration Of Multi-focus PlenOpTic camEra), a collection of tools to pre-calibrate and calibrate (multifocus) plenoptic cameras.
  • PRISM (Plenoptic Raw Image Simulator), a collection of tools to generate and simulate raw images from (multifocus) plenoptic cameras.
  • BLADE (BLur Aware Depth Estimation with a plenoptic camera), a collection of tools to estimate depth map from raw images obtained by (multifocus) plenoptic cameras.

Based on the libpleno, an open-source C++ computer-vision library for plenoptic cameras modeling and processing.
