Abstract
A camera module is disclosed including an image sensor having an associated optical filter configured to receive a first set of one or more wavelengths of light, and a housing around the image sensor. The housing has an associated optical filter configured to allow a second set of one or more wavelengths of light to pass through the housing and to block the first set of one or more wavelengths of light from passing through the housing. In examples, the second set of one or more wavelengths of light may be light in the visible range of wavelengths, and the housing may be transparent.
