Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An imaging system (400) includes an imager (410) having first and second light sensors (465, 467), the first light sensor (465) being configured to record light in a first wavelength range and the second light sensor (467) being configured to record light in a second wavelength range, an alignment mechanism (440) configured to be attached to the imager (410), an illumination source (450) configured to generate a supercontinuum light beam, and a light shaping mechanism (452) configured to transform the supercontinuum light beam into a linear strip of light (450B). The alignment mechanism (440) is configured to adjust a position of the light shaping mechanism (452) so that a back scattered light (710), resulting from a scattering of the linear strip of light (450B) from a target (620), has an intensity above a given minimum for each of the first and second light sensors (465, 467).
