Abstract: A modular system for the capture of images and associated methods are provided. The system comprises a plurality of lens modules, each comprising a lens, an image sensor, and a communication interface, and a controller unit comprising a housing, a battery, a memory, at least one communication interface, and a processor operative to acquire images from one or more of the plurality of lens modules responsive to at least one of: a determination that a time interval has passed, a sensor input, or a user input, store the images in the memory, and provide the stored images via one of the at least one communication interface.
