Abstract
A digital camera has a dual field of view optical system with two separate focal planes, whose images fall simultaneously on a single imaging sensor, an actuator to move the optical system along an optical axis, and a digital processor associated with the imaging sensor. The actuator moves the optical system so that the imaging sensor is sequentially in each of the focal planes, and the digital processing element co-processes images sampled from each of the focal planes to as to derive images with two fields of view.
