1. A method for reconstructing an image of a scene comprising: configuring a digital light modulator according to a spatially varying pattern; collecting and optically focusing light energy associated with said scene incident on said spatially varying pattern on each of at least two photodetectors; collecting data indicative of an intensity of the focused light energy from each of said at least two photodetectors; and combining said data from said at least two photodetectors to reconstruct an image of said scene.
