Abstract:
An along track imaging device. The device includes: a plurality of optical sensors positioned in parallel with each other and perpendicular to a direction of travel of the imaging device or an object for continuously capturing a plurality of images from the object, wherein each of the plurality of optical sensors includes a flat optic lens with a narrow angle of view; an imaging sensor coupled to the plurality of optical sensors for sensing the plurality of captured images and generating a plurality of overlaid images; a processor coupled to the imaging sensor for compositing the plurality of overlaid images into a single composite image; a digital storage medium for storing a plurality of composite images in series as a contiguous along track image; and a display device for displaying the contiguous along track image

Claim (Index 12):
An imaging method for capturing a continuous image of a moving object, the method comprising:\n positioning a plurality of optical sensors in parallel with each other and perpendicular to a direction of travel of the object, wherein at least one of the plurality of optical sensors has an angle of view of less than 5 degrees, and image distortion of less than 2 percent; continuously capturing a plurality of images from the object, with a narrow angle of view; sensing the plurality of captured images by an imaging sensor; generating a plurality of overlaid images from the plurality of captured images; compositing the plurality of overlaid images into a single composite image; storing a plurality of composite images in series as a contiguous along track image; and displaying the contiguous along track image.
