- A
catadioptric optical system is one
where refraction and
reflection are
combined in an
optical system,
usually via
lenses (dioptrics) and
curved mirrors...

catadioptric sensor is a
visual sensor that
contains mirrors (catoptrics) and
lenses (dioptrics), a
combined catadioptric system.
These are panoramic...
