Abstract (en)
[origin: CA2453049A1] An imaging system (10) and methodology (600) is provided to facilitate optic al imaging performance. The system (10) includes a sensor (20) having one or mo re receptors and an image transfer medium (30) to scale the sensor and receptor s to an object field of view (54). A computer (824), memory (864), and/or display (864) associated with the sensor (20) provides storage and/or displa y of information relating to output from the receptors to produce and/or proce ss an image, wherein a plurality of illumination sources (60) can also be utilized in conjunction with the image transfer medium (30). The image transfer medium (30) can be configured as a k-space filter (110) that correlates a pitch (116) associated with the receptors to a diffraction- limited spot (50) within the object field of view (54), wherein the pitch (116) can be unit-mapped to about the size of the diffraction- limited spot (50) within the object field of view (54).
