Abstract:
1. An apparatus for capturing 3D images including a lens barrel having a first end where light enters the lens barrel and a second end, comprising; a lens disposed at the first end of the lens barrel; an image capture element at the second end of the lens barrel; a first refracting lens positioned along the optical axis of the lens barrel, the first refracting lens being mounted to a first set of positioning elements, the first set of positioning elements for changing the position and angle of the first refracting lens with respect to the optical axis; a second refracting lens positioned along the optical axis of the lens barrel between the first refracting lens and the image capture element, the second refracting lens being mounted to a second set of positioning elements, the second set of positioning elements for changing the position and angle of the second refracting lens independently of the position and angle of the first refracting lens.
