Multispectral imaging can be applied to water quality monitoring, medical diagnosis, and other applications, but the principle of multispectral imaging is different from the principle of hyper-spectral imaging. Multispectral imaging is generally achieved through filters, so multiple photos are required to obtain spectral information. Using multiple detectors to take pictures at the same time increases the complexity and cost of the system. This paper proposes a simple multispectral camera based on lensless imaging, which does not require multiple lenses. The core of the system is the multispectral coding aperture. The coding aperture is divided into different regions and each region transmits the light of one wavelength, such that the spectral information of the target can be coded. By solving the inverse problem of sparse constraints, the multispectral information of the target is inverted. Herein, we analyzed the characteristics of this multispectral camera and developed a principle prototype to obtain experimental results.
