Wide field of view camera for integration with a mobile device

An imaging device comprising:

• at least one first photo sensor configured to receive light from a wide-angle lens;
• at least one second photo sensor configured to receive light from a standard angle lens;
• and
• a connection mechanism to transfer data associated with images captured by the at least one first and second photo sensors to cause a processor to receive any of the captured images and create a wide view image of an environment around the imaging device,
• wherein the captured images include a distorted image and a standard image, and wherein creating the wide view image includes merging pixels of the distorted image and the standard image.

A method, comprising:

• disposing an array of lenses corresponding to photo sensors around a substrate,
• wherein a first subset of the array of lenses includes wide-angle lenses and a second subset of the array of lenses includes standard-angle lenses;
• and
• configuring a connection mechanism to transfer data associated with images captured by the photo sensors to cause a processor to receive any of the captured images and create a wide view image of an environment around an imaging device,
• wherein the captured images include a distorted image and a standard image, and wherein creating the wide view image includes merging pixels of the distorted image and the standard image.
