Abstract
An optical imaging system comprising: a taking lens system that collects light from a scene being imaged with the optical imaging system; a 3D camera comprising at least one photosurface that receives light from the taking lens system simultaneously from all points in the scene and provides data for generating a depth map of the scene responsive to the light; and an imaging camera comprising at least one photosurface that receives light from the taking lens system and provides a picture of the scene responsive to the light.

An optical imaging system comprising:
- a taking lens that collects light from a scene being imaged with the optical imaging system;
- a 3D camera comprising at least one photosurface that receives light from the taking lens simultaneously from all points in the scene and provides data for generating a depth map of the scene responsive to the light;
- and
- an imaging camera comprising at least one photosurface that receives light from the taking lens and provides a picture of the scene responsive to the light;
- and
- a light control system that controls an amount of light from the taking lens that reaches at least one of the 3D camera and the imaging camera without affecting an amount of light that reaches the other of the 3D camera and the imaging camera.
