More Information
Summary:The disclosed camera system may include a primary camera and a plurality of secondary cameras that each have a maximum horizontal FOV that is less than a maximum horizontal FOV of the primary camera. Two of the plurality of secondary cameras may be positioned such that their maximum horizontal FOVs overlap in an overlapped horizontal FOV and the overlapped horizontal FOV may be at least as large as a minimum horizontal FOV of the primary camera. The camera system may also include an image controller that simultaneously activates two or more of the primary camera and the plurality of secondary cameras when capturing images from a portion of an environment included within the overlapped horizontal FOV. Various other systems, devices, assemblies, and methods are also disclosed.
