Abstract

This paper describes reconfigurable geometries for image sensors based on a concentric cartesian multiresolution lattice modified by four configuration parameters. They allow one, without moving the image sensor, to examine any region of the field of view with the highest available resolution, as well as to select the acuity profile for the regions surrounding the fovea. The efficient processing of the multiresolution images obtained requires discrete shifts of fovea and rings whose magnitudes are calculated. Real time foveal images have been preprocessed and examples are given
