A sensor arrangement including at least one electro-optical sensor which is secured to a receiving structure of a sensor holder. The electro-optical sensor includes a sensor housing with an optically active sensor layer that is arranged thereon. The optically active sensor layer forms a light-sensitive plane. The sensor holder includes a non-adjustable receiving structure which compensates for a previously determined deviation in shape of the electro-optical sensor from a desired shape.

Sensor arrangement

A system that facilitates collecting data is described herein. The system includes a digital camera that is configured to capture images in a visible light spectrum and a near-infrared camera that is configured to capture near infrared images, wherein a field of view of the digital camera and the field of view of the near-infrared camera are substantially similar. The system further includes a trigger component that is configured to cause the digital camera and the near-infrared camera to capture images at a substantially similar point in time, and also includes a mounting mechanism that facilitates mounting the digital camera and the near-infrared camera to an automobile.

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for capturing data to acquire indoor and outdoor geometry. In aspects, a data capture system may be configured to acquire texture data, geometry data, navigation data and/or orientation data to support geolocation and georeferencing within indoor and outdoor environments. The data capture system may further be configured to acquire seamless texture data from a 360&#xb0; horizontal and vertical perspective to support panoramic video and images.
