3D LAPAROSCOPIC IMAGE CAPTURE APPARATUS WITH A SINGLE IMAGE SENSOR

摘要

A system is presented including a first lens for receiving a first image, a second lens for receiving a second image, the first and second lenses being synchronized with each other, and a mirror and prism assembly configured to receive the first and second images. The system further includes a single image sensor configured to receive the first and second images from the mirror and prism assembly, the first image projected onto a first side of the single image sensor and the second image projected onto a second side of the single image sensor. The system may also include at least one processor for separately processing the first image on the first side of the single image sensor and the second image on the second side of the single image sensor to reconstruct a three-dimensional image of an object.
