ABSTRACT:
An imaging system and method for dual polarization imaging is provided. In one implementation, an imaging system includes a field stop located at a first image plane for limiting an incident light ray bundle passing through an aperture thereof and a polarization discriminating element adapted to separate the incident light ray bundle into a first ray bundle having a first polarization traveling in a first direction and a second ray bundle having a second polarization traveling in a second direction. The system also includes an image detector located at a second image plane to receive the first and second ray bundles such that the first ray bundle forms a first image at a first region of the image detector and the second ray bundle forming a second image at a second region the image detector, the first and second images laterally displaced from each other at the second image plane.
