Classification: CPC G  H | IPC H

Claim 11:
12. An imaging method comprising:
providing at least one camera, wherein the camera comprises at least one sensor comprising one or more pixel bands each configured to acquire an image of a fraction of a scene,
while a line of sight of the camera is maintained fixedly oriented towards a target of a scene:
(O1) controlling the camera to acquire an image by each of the pixel bands of the sensor located at a current position relative to the camera,
(O2) sending a command to an actuator of the sensor, for inducing a motion of the sensor relative to the camera along at least one direction, from the current position to a new position,
(O3) controlling the camera to acquire an image by each of the pixel bands of the sensor,

wherein motion of the sensor from the current position to the new position is performed during a first period of time PT1, and the sensor is retained stationary at the new position during a second period of time PT2,
wherein acquisition of the image by each of the pixel bands of the sensor is performed during a third period of time PT3, wherein at least a majority of the third period of time PT3 is within the second period of time PT2.
