Method and Apparatus For Providing Strobed Image Capture
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for providing strobed image capture, comprising:
- controlling at least one strobed illumination source to limit an amount of radiation from the illumination source that is applied to an illumination sensitive object;
synchronizing at least one camera with the strobed illumination source; and
capturing at least one image of the illumination sensitive object with the at least one camera, the object being illuminated at least in part by a plurality of photons from the strobed illumination source.
