Abstract:
1. A holographic muting lens camera system comprising: a dual axis four lens system operable to be angularly adjusted to receive light along a first optical axis, a second optical axis, a third optical axis, and a fourth optical axis respectively; four LCD switching elements operable to receiving light through the dual axis four lens system; a pair of LCD switched dual filtered dichroic mirrors positioned to receive light from the first optical axis and the fourth optical axis; a pair of half silvered dichroic color filter elements for receiving light along the second optical axis and the third optical axis positioned in an inverted v-shape at a 90 degree angle; and two charge coupled device (CCD) pickups operable to receive light along the second optical axis and the third optical axis being spaced apart and substantially parallel, wherein the light from the second optical axis and the third optical axis is combined with light received along the first axis and fourth axis respectively through a plurality of half silvered mirrors for processing by the CCD pickups, wherein the plurality of half silvered mirrors are operable to reflect light received through the first optical axis, the second optical axis, the third optical axis, and the fourth optical axis reflected or communicated through the four LCD switching elements, the pair of LCD switched dual filtered dichroic mirrors, and the pair of half silvered dichroic filter elements to produce optical disparity for dimension.
