Abstract

A multi-aperture imaging device includes an image sensor and array of optical channels, wherein each optical channel includes optics for projecting at least one partial field of view of a total field of view on an image sensor area of the image sensor. The multi-aperture imaging device includes a beam deflector for deflecting an optical path of the optical channels. A first optical channel of the array is configured to image a first partial field of view of a first total field of view, wherein a second optical channel of the array is configured to image a second partial field of view of the first total field of view. A third optical channel is configured to completely image a second total field of view. The second total field of view is an incomplete section of the first total field of view.
