Abstract
Image sensor (') for use with a lens (′) arranged to focus light onto an image sensing area () of said image sensor (). Camera () comprising the image sensor (′) and said lens (′). Imaging system () for three-dimensional imaging of an object () based on light triangulation, comprising the camera. The image sensor () comprising an optical plate () arranged to cover the image sensing area () by at least two optical plate portions (----) with different refractive properties such that light incident from said lens (′) and refracted by said optical plate portions (----) towards and onto the image sensing area () will travel different distances to be in focus on the image sensing area depending on which of said optical plate portions (----) the light was refracted by. As a result, the image sensing area portions covered by said at least two optical plate portions (----) become associated with different focus planes (----).
