Abstract
An imaging device is presented for use in an imaging system capable of improving the image quality. The imaging device has one or more optical systems defining an effective aperture of the imaging device. The imaging device comprises a lens system having an algebraic representation matrix of a diagonalized form defining a first Condition Number, and a phase encoder utility adapted to effect a second Condition Number of an algebraic representation matrix of the imaging device, smaller than said first Condition Number of the lens system.
Claims9
A system comprising, an imaging system and a processor utility, the imaging system comprising:
- first and second lens systems having corresponding first and second numerical apertures and both directed for imaging of a common object plane, the second numerical aperture is smaller than the first numerical aperture;
- an image detection unit for detecting light collected by the first and second lens systems and generating corresponding first and second image data pieces indicative of the object plane from a common direction;
- and
- the processor utility is configured to:
- receive the first image data piece and the second image data piece that are collected with respect to the common object plane, and
- process the first and second image data pieces to provide a reconstructed image of the field of view.
