The amount of image data from the captured three-dimensional integral image is large and the resolution of reconstructed images by conventional computational reconstruction methods is low in Integral Imaging (II) system. To overcome these problems, a computational reconstruction method by sampling elemental images array is proposed. This method makes full use of the matching pixels in adjacent elemental images of integral imaging, thus high resolution reconstruction is realized by only using sampled elemental images. Experimental results show that the proposed method improves the resolution of reconstructed images and reduces data amount used in reconstruction. This provides certain convenience for the storage and transmission of integral images.
