Abstract:
An optical system and method may relate to capturing extended dynamic range images. In an example embodiment, the optical system may include a lens element configured to receive incident light and a beam splitter optically coupled to the lens element. The beam splitter is configured to separate the incident light into at least a first portion having a first photon flux and a second portion having a second photon flux. The first photon flux is at least an order of magnitude greater than the second photon flux. A controller may be configured to cause a first image sensor to capture a first image of the first portion of the incident light according to first exposure parameters and cause a second image sensor to capture a second image of the second portion of the incident light according to second exposure parameters.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of  claim 15 , wherein the raster display or the flashing display comprises a traffic signal, wherein the first capture time and the second capture time differ based on an operation of two or more light segments of the traffic signal, and wherein operation of the two or more light segments comprises illuminating at least two of the two or more light segments at different times within the known frame time.
