Multi-aperture imaging systems

摘要

An example composite imaging system includes a first imaging system further comprising a first image sensor and a first aperture anterior to the first image sensor. The first aperture (i) is defined by an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter and (ii) defines, at least in part, a field of view of the first imaging system. The first imaging system further includes a plurality of reflectors posterior to the first aperture that are configured to redirect light that crosses the first aperture to the first image sensor. The first image sensor, the first aperture, and the plurality of reflectors are arranged around a common optical axis. The composite imaging system further includes a second imaging system arranged substantially anterior to the first imaging system. The second imaging system is arranged such that the second imaging system is outside a field of view of the first imaging system.

1. A composite imaging system comprising:
a first imaging system comprising:
a first image sensor;a first aperture anterior to the first image sensor, wherein the first aperture (i) is defined by an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter and (ii) defines, at least in part, a field of view of the first imaging system; anda plurality of reflectors posterior to the first aperture that are configured to redirect light that crosses the first aperture to the first image sensor, wherein the first image sensor, the first aperture, and the plurality of reflectors are arranged around a common optical axis; and a second imaging system arranged substantially anterior to the first imaging system, the second imaging system comprising:
a second image sensor; anda second aperture located anterior to the second image sensor, wherein the second aperture defines, at least in part, a field of view of the second imaging system, wherein the second aperture and the second image sensor are arranged around the common optical axis, and wherein the second imaging system is arranged such that the second imaging system is outside the field of view of the first imaging system.
