An electronic apparatus for converting an optical image of an object into a digital representation of this optical image is described. The apparatus comprises a cartridge having a first portion through which light emitted from a visible image of an object enters into the cartridge, which comprises a two-dimensional array of focusing elements, each of which having a field of vision intersecting a given area of the visible image. Adjacent ones of these focusing elements have fields of vision intersecting common portions of the visible image, whereby substantially the entirety of the visible image is covered by combined fields of vision of the focusing elements. The cartridge further comprises a two-dimensional array of optical sensors arrays, each of which being optically associated with a respective one of the focusing elements. These optical sensors arrays produce groups of analog pixel signals representing partial images associated with corresponding areas of the visible image. The apparatus further comprises a controller interface and a computer controller for .converting the groups of digital pixel signals into composite digital pixel signals associated with the respective points of a composite digital representation of the optical image. |
