1. A system, comprising:
a first camera including a first filter having a spectral response, a first meta-optic lens, and a first sensor;
a second camera including a second filter having a spectral response different than the spectral response of the first filter, a second meta-optic lens, and a second sensor; and
a processor configured to:
receive a representation of a first image of a scene captured by the first camera,
receive a representation of a second image of the scene captured by the second camera,
perform deconvolution based on the representation of the first image to generate a representation of a first deconvolved image,
perform deconvolution based on the representation of the second image to generate a representation of a second deconvolved image,
perform parallax correction based on the representation of the first deconvolved image to generate a representation of a first parallax corrected image,
perform parallax correction based on the representation of the second deconvolved image to generate a representation of a second parallax corrected image, and
perform demosaicing based on the representation of the first parallax corrected image and the representation of the second parallax corrected image to generate a final image having an aberration less than an aberration of the representation of the first image and an aberration of the representation of the second image.
