1. A system, comprising:

  • a sensor component that detects energy that impinges on the sensor component, wherein a vertical field-of-view for stereo vision is centered near a horizontal plane of the vertical field-of-view;

    a spatial processor component that determines spatial information relating to the energy detected by the sensor component;

    a refractive element component that refracts a first part of the energy associated with a point of a scene to impinge on the sensor component; and

    a reflective element component that reflects a second part of the energy associated with the point of the scene to impinge on the sensor component, wherein the second part of the energy is different from the first part of the energy.
