Abstract

Optical imaging systems are presented with high performance physical optics in conjunction with advanced image processing technique specifically tuned with respect to those physical optics to realize compact, very high resolution imaging systems. Clever geometric arrangements of lens elements and translation systems to effect motion between those arrangements support very compact storage modes and high performance imaging modes in the same device. As such, these imaging systems disclosed are particularly useful for photography and videography applications where highly portable and compact platforms are in demand. Systems which are small enough to be integrated with a common smartphone computing platform can produce very high resolution images comparable to those of high end digital single lens reflex DSLR systems.
