Abstract

A multi-aperture imaging device includes a one-line array of adjacently arranged optical channels and beam-deflecting unit for deflecting an optical path of the optical channels. The beam-deflecting unit includes a first position and a second position between which the beam-deflecting unit is translationally moveable along a line extension direction of the one-line array. The beam-deflecting unit is configured such that it deflects the optical path of each optical channel into mutually different directions depending on whether it is located in the first position or in the second position.
