1. A method of synthesizing a higher resolution image from a plurality of images captured from different viewpoints, comprising: normalizing a set of images using calibration data stored in a storage device using an address conversion module, where: the set of images comprises a plurality of images that are: captured from different viewpoints and include sampling diversity; include different occlusions sets; wherein the occlusion set of a first image is the portion of a scene visible in a second image that is occluded in the first image; and the set of images includes: images captured using the same imaging characteristics; images captured using different imaging characteristics; and a first image that captures pixels around an edge of a foreground object that is visible in a baseline image and is in the occlusion set of a second image captured using the same imaging characteristics as the first imager; detecting and metering parallax using a parallax confirmation and measurement module, where detecting and metering parallax comprises ignoring pixels in the images that are in an exposed occlusion set; aligning portions of images captured by different imagers to compensate for parallax using an image pixel correlation module based upon the detected and metered parallax and the stored calibration data; and obtaining a higher resolution image having a resolution that is higher than the resolutions of the images in the set of images using a super-resolution module, where color information around the edge of the foreground object that is visible in the baseline image and in the occlusion set of the second image is reconstructed in the higher resolution image using the pixels captured by the first image.
