Tiled imaging apparatus providing substantially continuous imaging

An imaging support for an imaging apparatus, said imaging apparatus having a plurality of imaging device tiles arranged on said imaging support, wherein each of said imaging device tiles includes an imaging device having an imaging surface and a non-active region, the imaging surface of a first imaging device tile at least partially overlying the non-active region of a second imaging device tile, said imaging support comprising a support surface with a plurality of tile mounting locations corresponding to said plurality of imaging device tiles, said tile mounting locations being tilted to provide sawtooth deviations from said support surface.

An imaging device tile for an imaging apparatus having an imaging support, said imaging device tile comprising an imaging device with an imaging surface and a non-active region, a mount with a mounting surface, and an imaging device support structure, said imaging device support structure being arranged to position said imaging surface at an angle to said mounting surface.

An imaging apparatus comprising a plurality of imaging device tiles arranged on an imaging support, each of said imaging device tiles including an imaging device having an imaging surface and a non-active region proximate an edge of said tile, said imaging device on said imaging device tile being mounted on said imaging support in a tilted orientation, wherein the imaging surface of a first imaging device tile at least partially overlies the non-active region of a second imaging device tile.
