Image recording method having adaptive marking light emission and such an image recording device

An image recording method for image capture using an image recording device, comprising:

• wherein the image recording device has a camera having an image sensor and an objective lens,
• wherein the camera defines an image recording region, which can be captured in an image and can be set at least by means of the objective lens and the image sensor has a capture area having a plurality of image pixels for image capture and the image pixels can be activated and read out in pixel groups, and
• a marking unit having a light source for emitting marking light,
• wherein
• an emission of the marking light is performed such that a visually perceptible light marking is generated inside the image recording region, and
• an image capture of the image recording region is performed by means of the camera,
• wherein the emission of the marking light is performed in a predetermined manner, such that the light marking is generated within an initially known light incidence region, the light incidence region forming a subregion of the image recording region and being known based on a known configuration of the marking unit and a known arrangement of the marking unit in relation to the camera such that the light incidence region can be captured by a subset of initially known sub-image pixels from the plurality of image pixels,
• wherein the image capture is performed using chronologically offset collection, pixel group by pixel group, of exposure information, wherein the emission of the marking light is adapted for the collection of the exposure information of the subset of sub-image pixels capturing the light incidence region, which comprises at least one sub-image pixel, whereas generation of the light marking inside the image recording region is activated for the collection of the exposure information of the remaining image pixels, and
• wherein image information is progressively collected and read out, and an image is generated, which images the entire image recording region, wherein the marking light is not captured in the image.
