A method for flicker reduction in a multi-imager environment, the method comprising: (a) producing , using a first near-field illuminator source of a plurality of illuminator sources, a first illumination, wherein the plurality of illuminator sources comprises more than two illuminator sources; (b) exposing a near-field image sensor during the first illumination; (c) generating a near-field image based on the exposure of the near-field image sensor; (d) exposing a far-field image sensor such that the exposure of the far-field image sensor is not during any pulse associated with the first illumination; (e) generating a far-field image based on the exposure of the far-field image sensor; (f) repeating steps (b)-(e) until a first illumination switch event is detected; (g) detecting a first illuminator switch event; in response to the detection of the first illuminator switch event: (h) deactivating the first near-field illuminator source; (i) producing , using a second far-field illuminator source of the plurality of illuminator sources, a second illumination associated with at least one second illumination pulse, wherein a field of view illuminated by the second far-field illuminator source is different than a field of view illuminated by the first near-field illuminator source; (j) exposing the near-field image sensor during the second illumination; (k) generating a second near-field image based on the exposure of the near-field image sensor during the second illumination; (l) exposing the far-field image sensor such that the exposure of the far-field image sensor is not during any pulse associated with the second illumination; (m) generating the far-field image based on the exposure of the far-field image sensor during the second illumination; and (n) repeating steps (j)-(m) for the second far-field illuminator source until a second illuminator switch event is detected.
