Abstract
An optical element includes a traditional element having a single refractive index to transmit light from a scene from one direction; a gradient-index element attached to the traditional element and having an off-axis focus point and a refractive index that changes in a direction from a center of the gradient-index element to adjust an angle of incident light that is incident from a second direction reflected across an irradiance profile of the incident light to collimate the reflected light and reduce an optical aberration of the traditional element; and a dichroic coating between the traditional element and the gradient-index element to reflect the incident light and transmit the light from the scene, wherein the traditional element reduces an optical power of the gradient-index element.
