This function simulates the shift-variant defocus blur due to the limited depth of field of a digital camera. It works my mapping a source irrandiance (image) to a given depthmap and generates an image sequence at different focus positions using a gaussian PSF derived from geometrical optics. For a detailed description of its working principles, refer to appendix B in [1]. This defocus model has been used in [2] and [3]. For a demo, simply run 'blurdemo' at the matlab prompt.
