IMAGER DEVICE FOR EVALUATING DISTANCES OF ELEMENTS IN AN IMAGE

An imager device including: an imager integrated circuit comprising a matrix of pixels, several first, second and third focusing means such that each focusing means is provided facing a group of four associated pixels forming a 2×2 matrix, and is capable of focusing light rays to the group of associated pixels, and perform focusing which are different and equivalent to an arrangement of groups of associated pixels at three distances which are different toward the inlet face for light rays in the imager device, fourth means capable of passing, with respect to each group of pixels, the light rays directed toward said group and passing through the focusing means associated with said group, and capable of blocking the light rays directed toward said group and passing through the other focusing means.
