Abstract:
1. A system, comprising: a monocentric primary optics section including one or more surfaces adapted to form a symmetrical arrangement around a common point of origin; a secondary optics section including a plurality of secondary optics subsections arranged at different field angles to intercept and capture different portions of light output by the monocentric primary optics at the different field angles, wherein each secondary optics subsection is adapted to intercept at least a portion of light collected by the monocentric primary optics section to form a subimage as part of a full image in light collected by the monocentric primary optics section, and wherein combination of the primary optics section and the secondary optics section is adapted to form subimages by the secondary optics subsections that collectively represent the full image in light collected by the monocentric primary optics section.
