Abstract: An imaging system having multiple imaging devices arranged in succession in the direction of an optical axis, including a first imaging device for generating a real intermediate image of an object on an intermediate image plane, a second imaging device for generating a virtual mirror image of the real intermediate image, the mirror image being laterally offset to the real intermediate image on the intermediate plane, and a third imaging device for imaging the real intermediate image and the virtual mirror image together as a real image on an image receiver surface to be arranged at an axial distance to the intermediate image plane. The imaging system has an optical filtering device for filtering the imaging of the real intermediate image and/or at least one of the virtual mirror images separately from each other. The imaging system includes the image receiver surface and a device for processing a real image captured by the image receiver surface. The processing device uses the image to determine positions in the direction of the optical axis of object region points, which are imaged by at least individual pixels of the pixels of the image.

Abstract: A device includes at least one camera, a transmitter, and a main controller. The at least one camera is configured to collect an image and obtain an image signal. The transmitter includes a first signal end and a second signal end. The first signal end includes a first quantity of connection channels electrically connected to the photographing module, and the second signal end includes a second quantity of connection channels electrically connected to the main controller. The first quantity is greater than the second quantity. The image signal is transmitted from the first signal end to the second signal end. The main controller module is configured to receive and process the image signal.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes: an imaging element including an imaging surface on which light from a subject is incident; an imaging unit that supports the imaging element in a state where the imaging surface faces forward; a casing including a through hole in a front surface and accommodating the imaging unit in a state where a front side portion of the imaging unit passes through the through hole so as to protrude from the front surface; and an actuator that is provided in the casing and displaces the imaging unit in a direction intersecting a normal direction of the imaging surface. The imaging unit includes a flange portion extending outward from the front side portion of the imaging unit so as to cover at lease part pf a gap between the through hole of the casing and the imaging unit.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include an energy waveguide system having an array of waveguides and an energy inhibiting element configured to substantially fill a waveguide element aperture and selectively propagate energy along some energy propagation paths through the array of waveguides. In an embodiment, such an energy waveguide system may define energy propagation paths through the array of waveguides in accordance to a 4D plenoptic system. In an embodiment, energy propagating through the energy waveguide system may comprise energy propagation for stimulation of any sensory receptor response including visual, auditory, somatosensory systems, and the waveguides may be incorporated into a holographic display or an aggregated bidirectional seamless energy surface capable of both receiving and emitting two-dimensional, light field or holographic energy through waveguiding or other 4D plenoptic functions prescribing energy convergence within a viewing volume. The waveguides may include different structures configured for each or all sensory system or energy domain to direct energy through refraction, diffraction, reflection, or other approaches of affecting the propagation paths of energy.

Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include an energy directing device having one or more energy relay elements configured to direct energy from one or more energy locations through the device. In an embodiment, surfaces of the one or more energy relay elements may form a singular seamless energy surface where a separation between adjacent energy relay element surfaces is less than a minimum perceptible contour. In disclosed embodiments, energy is produced at energy locations having an active energy surface and a mechanical envelope. In an embodiment, the energy directing device is configured to relay energy from the energy locations through the singular seamless energy surface while minimizing separation between energy locations due to their mechanical envelope. In embodiments, the energy relay elements may comprise energy relays utilizing transverse Anderson localization phenomena.
