Abstract
An imaging system for a vehicle includes an image sensor for detecting electromagnetic radiation, a first lens unit and a second lens unit for focusing electromagnetic radiation, and at least one transflective unit, with the transflective unit being configured to project electromagnetic radiation from the first lens unit or from the second lens unit essentially perpendicularly on the image sensor, where the first lens unit has a first optical axis and the second lens unit has a second optical axis crossing the first optical axis at a crossing point, and the transflective unit is arranged between the image sensor, the first lens unit, and the second lens unit, preferably at the crossing point. A rear view display device includes at least one imaging system, and a vehicle includes at least one imaging system.
