Multi-view image system with a single camera and a transreflective device

A multi-view image system (10) comprising a single camera (26) configured to capture an image, and a transreflective device (30). The transreflective device (30) is operable to a transparent-state where light passes through the transreflective device (30) to provide the camera (26) a first image (18...

Zusammenfassung:A multi-view image system (10) comprising a single camera (26) configured to capture an image, and a transreflective device (30). The transreflective device (30) is operable to a transparent-state where light passes through the transreflective device (30) to provide the camera (26) a first image (18) of an area (16) from a first perspective (20). The transreflective device (30) is also operable to a reflective-state where light is reflected by the transreflective device (30) to provide the camera (26) a second image (22) of the area (16) from a second perspective (24) distinct from the first perspective (20). The system (10) may also include a mirror arrangement (32) that cooperates with the transreflective device (30) to provide the camera (26) the first image (18) when the transreflective device (30) is in the transparent-state, and the second image (22) when the transreflective device (30) in in the reflective-state.
