Abstract
An imaging method includes obtaining an image with a first field of view and first effective resolution and the analyzing the image with a visual attention algorithm to one identify one or more areas of interest in the first field of view. A subsequent image is then obtained for each area of interest with a second field of view and a second effective resolution, the second field of view being smaller than the first field of view and the second effective resolution being greater than the first effective resolution.
