An imaging system includes a plurality of optical sensors arranged on an integrated circuit in an array with a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns. The system includes an interface communicating with the plurality of optical sensors, memory storing operational instructions and processing circuitry configured to sample an image using the plurality of optical sensors in a first mode and sample at least a portion of the image sequentially on a row-by-row basis at a predetermined sampling rate in a second mode to produce row by row sample outputs. The processing circuitry is further configured to initiate sampling at least some rows of the plurality of rows of optical sensors using different time stamps.
