A multi-axis imaging system and method wherein a plurality of optical
elements are arranged to produce in image space thereof respective images
of respective regions in object space thereof, and a plurality of image
sensing elements corresponding to respective optical elements are
disposed in image space of the image sensing elements to capture images
of the respective regions. At least one baffle is positioned along an
optical pathway of at least one of the optical elements to block light
from outside the field of view of the one of the optical elements from
reaching a corresponding image sensing element.
