Abstract:
1. Image detection system for a panoramic view comprising one camera unit wherein the camera unit has a side that is oriented towards an image, said camera unit comprising: a single one-dimensional line of optical channels, having linearly disposed optical channels with spacing between them, wherein the optical channels include a microlens and a detector wherein the detector is positioned in a focal plane of the microlens and extracts an image point from a microimage behind the microlens, wherein individual optical channels have optical axes with different inclinations, wherein the inclinations of said optical axes are determined by a position of the individual optical channels relative to the camera unit's center on the side of the camera unit that is orientated towards the image, wherein the image detection system provides a field of view with a size and an image field with a size wherein a ratio of the size of the field of view to the size of the image field can be determined specifically, and wherein the camera unit is mounted on a rotating or rotating-oscillating rotational shaft and wherein the optical channels and the microlenses are configured for an enlargement of 1, wherein an object-side dihedral angle is assigned to each channel as an image point and wherein the object-side dihedral angle is adjusted in size such that, a lateral extension which corresponds to the dihedral angle is exactly as large as the spacing of the channels at an object spacing of the image detection system.
