APERTURE FOR INCREASING THE PARALLAX IN A SINGLE LENS THREE DIMENSIONAL CAMERA

摘要

A stereoscopic camera (10) is provided comprising: an image sensor (14); a lens system (20) adapted to focus light from a scene (O1) onto the image sensor (14); a dividing device (30) associated with the lens system (20) for dividing the lens system (20) into two portions; and a structure (30A) associated with the lens system (20) defining an aperture (41, 42) limiting an amount of light passing through at least a portion of the lens system (20). The aperture has a first length (L1) in a horizontal dimension which is greater than a second length (L2) in a vertical dimension.
