Abstract
Systems and methods for imaging using a plurality of light sources is provided. An imaging device comprises a housing, a lens within the housing, a plurality of light source sets attached or integrated into the housing, a two-dimensional pixelated detector within the housing in optical communication with the lens, memory and a controller. Each respective light source set comprises a plurality of lights uniformly radially distributed about the lens. A first light source set in the plurality sets emits light substantially limited to a first spectral range. A second light source set in the plurality of sets emits light substantially limited to a second spectral range other than the first range. At least one program non-transiently stored in the memory and executable by the controller sequentially and independently fired each light source set while collecting light using the pixelated detector. An imaging device can be integrated with a mobile device.
