Abstract
A compact image capturing system called TOMBO (Thin observation module by bound optics) used proposed. The TOMBO system is an instance of opto-electronic hybrid system, in which a compound-eye imaging optics is utilized for very thin system configuration and digital processing of the captured multiple images is applied to retrieve the object image. Experimental results using the TOMBO prototype system are shown. Also a compact fingerprint capturing system using the TOMBO is described.
