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 11):
The imaging system according to  claim 1 ,\n wherein the imaging apparatus includes: a fifth imaging apparatus including a fifth imaging element and a fifth optical system that forms an image of a fifth region on an imaging surface of the fifth imaging element, the fifth region including a first planar region; and a sixth imaging apparatus including a sixth imaging element and a sixth optical system that forms an image of a sixth region on an imaging surface of the sixth imaging element, the sixth region including a second planar region that makes contact with the first planar region within a same plane with the first planar region, the fifth optical system includes a 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 close to the second planar region than in a portion close to an optical axis of the fifth optical system in a direction extending along the first planar region, the sixth optical system includes a 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 close to the first planar region than in a portion close to an optical axis of the sixth optical system in a direction extending along the second planar region, and the generator generates, based on a high-resolution portion of image data acquired from the fifth imaging element and the sixth imaging element, a combined image in which the first planar region and the second planar region are connected.
