摘要:
A camera system includes a camera mounting frame having a plurality of camera mounts. Each camera mount is configured to hold a respective camera at a respective lens orientation such that mounted cameras provide different respective lens orientations relative to each other, with each mounted camera providing a different field of view facing outward from the mounting frame. The camera system may provide obstruction-free, fully spherical image and video capture to record spherical images or spherical videos in which the nadir hole and/or a physical support element of the camera system is eliminated or reduced in size during the digital stitching process of the image or video.

Methods and apparatus relating to capturing images of a scene area in a synchronized manner using a plurality of optical chains are described. In various embodiments image sensors corresponding to the plurality of optical chains of a camera are operated in rolling shutter mode to read out rows of pixel values corresponding to a current scan position when the image sensors have a row of pixel values corresponding to the current scan position. In some embodiments a scene area of interest is captured by initiating a scan and thus image capture of the scene area by one or more optical chains which are operated in a coordinated manner. In some embodiments a controller controls the plurality of image sensors to perform a read out of pixel values in a synchronized manner, e.g., with rows of pixel values being read out sequentially in accordance with operation of a rolling shutter implementation.

Aspects relate to a prism array camera having a wide field of view. For example, the prism array camera can use a central refractive prism, for example with multiple surfaces or facets, to split incoming light comprising the target image into multiple portions for capture by the sensors in the array. The prism can have a refractive index of approximately 1.5 or higher, and can be shaped and positioned to reduce chromatic aberration artifacts and increase the FOV of a sensor. In some examples a negative lens can be incorporated into or attached to a camera-facing surface of the prism to further increase the FOV.

An imaging device is provided, comprising a multidirectional imaging unit defining a plurality of fields of view (FOVs), a sensor unit, and guiding optics. The multidirectional imaging unit is configured for collecting a plurality of electromagnetic (EM) radiation portions from a plurality of scenes, each scene being imaged with a respective FOV. The sensor is configured for receiving EM radiation and generating image data indicative thereof. The guiding optics is configured for receiving at least a part of the collected EM radiation portions and directing them onto the sensor unit.
摘要:
A optoelectronic photo sensor to obtain single mosaic digital photographic images. Photo sensor is designed as a plurality of identical lenses having rows of staggered identical matrices arranged on a common focal surface with the gaps between adjacent matrices not exceeding the length of the effective number of pixels oriented along the row. Said arrangement provides a single large survey field from a plurality of individual matrices. Said design contemplates the use of several small individual lenses instead of one large and expensive lens, as well as many small matrices instead of one large and expensive matrix. The lenses are arranged at an angle to each other with a strictly defined dependence on the focal distance and the length of the gap between matrices in the row, which ensures continuous imaging by individual matrices over the surface surveyed with preset overlapping for subsequent cross-linking of images into one single film.
