A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11977321B2) discloses an imaging device designed with specific components and configurations to enhance image quality. The device includes a support plate defining an object plane, a housing surrounding the object plane, and a back illumination device with a back emitter face positioned at a specific distance from the object plane to transmit diffuse light. The device also features first and second reflector planes within the housing, each positioned at a precise angle from the object plane to optimize reflective communication.

Furthermore, the imaging device incorporates additional elements such as an image capture device with an optical lens at a specific distance from the object plane, a waveguide system with defined central axes and optical inlets and outlets, and light sources with emitter faces positioned radially outward from the interior reflective surfaces. These components work together to ensure optimal image capture and quality, with specific measurements and angles detailed in the patent claims to achieve the desired results. The patent highlights the importance of these precise configurations in improving imaging capabilities and overall performance of the device.
