Abstract
A new multispectral camera configuration based on multiple sensors with multiple filters using CMOS sensors and MIPI protocol in a mobile processing technology platform is described. We introduce two schemes using the camera either in video mode or in trigger mode of operation. We show how accurate time management makes it possible to multiplex MIPI coded image data and achieve fast imaging. We compare the schemes. As system simplicity and low power consumption were our goals, we have no image buffer memory and our scheme is asynchronous in nature. However we will discuss means to decrease intra frame latency.
