Vari-Focal Light Field Camera for Extended Depth of Field.
Article in Micromachines, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The light field camera provides a robust way to capture both spatial and angular information within a single shot. One of its important applications is in 3D depth sensing, which can extract depth information from the acquired scene. However, conventional light field cameras suffer from shallow depth of field (DoF). Here, a vari-focal light field camera (VF-LFC) with an extended DoF is newly proposed for mid-range 3D depth sensing applications. As a main lens of the system, a vari-focal lens with four different focal lengths is adopted to extend the DoF up to ~15 m. The focal length of the micro-lens array (MLA) is optimized by considering the DoF both in the image plane and in the object plane for each focal length. By dividing measurement regions with each focal length, depth estimation with high reliability is available within the entire DoF. The proposed VF-LFC is evaluated by the disparity data extracted from images with different distances. Moreover, the depth measurement in an outdoor environment demonstrates that our VF-LFC could be applied in various fields such as delivery robots, autonomous vehicles, and remote sensing drones.
