  • Wide angle electronic camera with improved peripheral vision
    Patent number: 7893985
    Abstract: The present inventions provide a system and method for a wide angle camera capable of high resolution peripheral vision. A wide angle lens system distorts the image and conveys it to an image sensor, which converts the image to an electronic signal and conveys it to image processing circuitry. The image processing circuitry corrects the distortion or transforms it to human recognizable image forms. In preferred embodiments, the distortion provides greater resolution of regions of interest and more efficient use of the area of the image sensor.
