A camera assembly is provided for a vehicle, the camera assembly at least having: a camera having a camera optics and an image sensor, an optical coupling body including a contact face for engaging on an inner surface of a vehicle window pane; the optical coupling body being formed of an optically transparent material and being configured in an area of coverage by the camera; a fixing device being provided between the camera and the optical coupling body for positioning the coupling body relative to the camera.

Camera assembly for a vehicle, and vehicle having such a camera assembly

A camera for a vehicle, the camera including: an image sensor; and a camera lens system for imaging a coverage region on the image sensor; the camera lens system having at least one lens; and the camera lens system and the image sensor determining an optical axis of the camera. In this connection, The camera lens system further includes a nonplanar reflector element which deflects the optical axis of the camera.

Camera for a vehicle and vehicle having the camera

In an image capture system for use in vehicles as well as an optical system for use in the automotive sector, the image capture system has at least one image sensor element having a plurality of image sensors situated in an image plane and at least one micro-lens system having a plurality of micro-lenses. Optionally, at least one aperture mask having a plurality of openings is situated between the micro-lens system and the at least one image sensor element. One image sensor, one micro-lens and one opening respectively define a pick-up direction of the image sensor. The totality of the pick-up directions defines a main viewing direction, which together with the image plane encloses an angle &#x3b1; of less than 80&#xb0;.

Image capture system for applications in vehicles

An optical recording unit having a compound lens which includes a lens stack. The lens stack encompasses a plurality of lenses, which are inset in a tubular housing. The lens stack includes a spacer ring which accommodates a sealing material or a sealing element and which is braced resiliently against one of the lenses in the tubular housing.
