An imaging system for producing images for display apparatus. Imaging system includes at least one imaging unit arranged to face real-world scene including camera, optical element including first optical portion and second optical portion having different focal lengths, first focal length of first optical portion is smaller than second focal length of second optical portion, and means for adjusting optical focus; and processor. Processor is configured to obtain gaze direction of user; determine region of interest within real-world scene; and control means for adjusting optical focus of imaging unit, based on focal lengths of first and second optical portions, to capture warped image of real-world scene, the warped image having spatially-uniform angular resolution.
An imaging system for producing images for a display apparatus, the imaging system comprising:
A method for producing images for a display apparatus, the method being implemented via an imaging system comprising at least one imaging unit arranged to face a given real-world scene, a given imaging unit comprising a camera, an optical element that comprises at least a first optical portion and a second optical portion having different focal lengths, wherein a first focal length of the first optical portion is smaller than a second focal length of the second optical portion, and means for adjusting an optical focus of the given imaging unit, the method comprising:
The method of 11, wherein the optical element and the means for adjusting the optical focus of the given imaging unit are implemented together as a dynamically-controllable optical element, wherein the method further comprises dynamically changing the focal lengths of the first optical portion and the second optical portion of the optical element.
