OPTICAL IMAGING SYSTEM AND CORRESPONDING METHOD AND COMPUTER SYSTEM

Examples relate to an optical imaging system, to a corresponding method for an optical imaging system and to a corresponding computer program. The optical imaging system comprises one or more optical imaging sensors (220, 225) for providing imaging sensor data of an object (20) to be imaged. The optical imaging system comprises a diode-based illumination system (230) for emitting at least a first unit of one or more light beams having a first polarization and a second unit of one or more light beams having a second polarization towards the object. The optical imaging system comprises a processing system (210) configured to generate a digital image representation of the object, comprising controlling a contribution of the at least two units of light beams in a digital image representation of the object, by at least one of a) controlling, separately for each of the at least two units, the light emitted by the unit, and b) controlling, separately for each of the at least two polarizations emitted by the at least two units, a contribution of the light having the respective polarization in the digital image representation of the object.
