    Abstract: An optoelectronic sensor for detecting an object in a monitored zone is provided that has a light transmitter and a transmission optics associated with the light transmitter in a transmission path for transmitting a light beam and a light receiver and a reception optics associated with the light receiver and offset from the transmission optics by a spacing in a reception path for receiving a light beam remitted by the object and for generating a received light spot on the light receiver, as well a control and evaluation unit that is configured to evaluate a received signal of the light receiver. The reception optics has at least one optical metaelement having a metasurface and/or a metamaterial and is configured such that a displacement of the received light spot on the light receiver in a near zone of the sensor dependent on a distance of the object from the sensor is no larger than a full width at half maximum of the received light spot.

    Abstract: A camera for recording 3D image data using a light sectioning process is provided that has an illumination unit to project a light pattern in a focal plane, an image sensor having a plurality of light reception elements in an image plane, a reception optics upstream of the image sensor and having an objective plane, and a control and evaluation unit that is configured to generate the 3D image data by evaluating the light pattern in a recording of the image sensor, wherein the image plane is tilted with respect to the focal plane. In this respect, the reception optics has at least one metaelement here that compensates an oblique light incidence on the light reception elements.
