Zusammenfassung:Examples are disclosed that relate to modifying an illumination profile of an illumination source. An example illumination system includes an illumination source configured to output light according to an illumination profile representing a distribution of light intensity across a field of view of the illumination system, an image sensor configured to detect light output by the illumination source and reflected off of one or more objects in an environment of the illumination system, and an illumination optic configured to direct light from the illumination source outward into the environment, the illumination optic structured to form a modified illumination profile having a modified distribution of illumination intensity, the modified distribution of intensity including a first intensity at a normal angle relative to the illumination source and a second intensity at other angles relative to the illumination source, the first intensity being lower than the second intensity.
