发明名称 FOVEATED PANORAMIC CAMERA SYSTEM
摘要 A foveated panoramic camera system includes multiple cameras oriented s o that individual images captured by the cameras can be combined to form a panoramic image. Each of the cameras includes a lens having a focal length that corresponds to a field of view for the camera. A field of view for a camera overlaps with the field(s) of view of each adjacent camera. At least one of the camer as has a field of view that differs from fields of view of other cameras for capturin g images that are situated at a greater distance from the camera system than are imag es captured by the other cameras. As a result, a more uniform resolution is achieved across all images captured by the multiple cameras. A mirror assembly is utilized to reflect object images into the multiple cameras to achieve a near center of projection for the camera system.
