Abstract
Abstract The image sensor system includes an image sensing means for producing an image signal by sensing a field of view. This image signal is sent to a means which reproduces an image of the field. An optical projection means forms an optical image of this image of the field reproduced by the image reproducing means, at the same size as and in registration with the field itself and illuminating the field. Thereby contrast of the image of the field is improved by an optical feedback process.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
74 words
An image sensor system, comprising: image sensing means for producing an image signal by sensing a field of view, means for reproducing an image of the field by receiving the picture signal from the image sensing means, and optical projection means for forming an optical image of the image of the field reproduced by the image reproducing means, at the same size as and in registration with the field itself and illuminating the field.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
74 words
An image sensor system, comprising: image sensing means for producing an image signal by sensing a field of view, means for reproducing an image of the field by receiving the picture signal from the image sensing means, and optical projection means for forming an optical image of the image of the field reproduced by the image reproducing means, at the same size as and in registration with the field itself and illuminating the field.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
An image sensor system according to claim 1, wherein the optical path from the field to the image sensing means and the optical path from the optical projection means to the field are at least in part coincident.
