Claim:
1. A light fixture comprising: a housing comprising a protective window transparent to light and having predefined dimensions; a camera, inside of the housing, configured to provide images of surroundings of the light fixture through the protective window to cover a wide field of view (WFOV) which is substantially larger than a field of view (FOV) of the camera when moving the camera along a predefined trajectory, where at any position of the camera along the predefined trajectory, light rays received by the camera in the camera FOV are within a substantially same area of the protective window and not shadowed by non-transparent edges of the protective window, where the predefined trajectory is defined by movement in a three-dimensional space of two points, and the camera position is defined by the two points at a given time; and a mechanical module, holding the camera, configured to move the camera along the predefined trajectory.
