Bayer模式详解——The Bayer Color Filter

The sensor used in color models of the camera is equipped with an additive color separation filter 
known as a Bayer filter. The pixel data output formats available on color cameras are related to the 
Bayer pattern, so you need a basic knowledge of the Bayer filter to understand the pixel formats. 
With the Bayer filter, each individual pixel is covered by a micro-lens that allows light of only one 
color to strike the pixel. The pattern of the Bayer filter used on the camera is as shown in Figure 37 
(the alignment of the Bayer filter with repect to the sensor is shown as an example only; the figure 
shows the "BG" filter alignment). Asthe figure illustrates, within each square of four pixels, one pixel 
sees only red light, one sees onlyblue light, and two pixels see only green light. (This combination 
mimics the human eye’s sensitivity to color.)

Bayer GB alignment means that pixel zero and pixel one of the first line in each image transmitted 

will be green and blue respectively. And for the second linetransmitted, pixel zero and pixel one will 
be red and green respectively. Since the pattern ofthe Bayer filter is fixed, you can use this 
information to determine the color of all of the other pixels in the image.
