Abstract:
An imaging system includes: a first imaging apparatus including a first imaging element and a first optical system; and a generator that generates an image based on image data acquired from the first imaging element. The first optical system includes a first free-form surface lens that has a shape that allows an image to be formed on the first imaging element such that a resolution is different between a portion of a predetermined region and another portion of the predetermined region, the resolution being defined as a total number of imaging pixels that capture an image within a unit field angle on a horizontal plane.

Claim (Index 13):
The imaging system according to  claim 11 ,\n wherein the imaging apparatus includes: the fifth imaging apparatus including the fifth imaging element and the fifth optical system that forms the image of the fifth region on the imaging surface of the fifth imaging element, the fifth region including the first planar region; and the sixth imaging apparatus including the sixth imaging element and the sixth optical system that forms the image of the sixth region on the imaging surface of the sixth imaging element, the sixth region including the second planar region that makes contact with the first planar region within the same plane with the first planar region, the fifth optical system includes the fifth free-form surface lens that has a shape that causes the image of the fifth region to be formed on the imaging surface of the fifth imaging element such that the resolution is higher in a portion far from the fifth optical system than in a portion close to the fifth optical system in the first planar region, the sixth optical system includes the sixth free-form surface lens that has a shape that causes the image of the sixth region to be formed on the imaging surface of the sixth imaging element such that the resolution is higher in a portion far from the sixth optical system than in a portion close to the sixth optical system in the second planar region, and the generator generates a combined image in which shapes of the first planar region and the second planar region and an arrangement of the first planar region and the second planar region are reproduced by enlarging an image of a high-resolution portion relative to an image of a low-resolution portion based on image data acquired from the fifth imaging element and the sixth imaging element.
