A system for reducing artifacts when imaging under pulse-width modulated illumination. A controller captures, with an image sensor, images as frames of a video of a target in an environment in which the target is illuminated by a pulse-width modulated light source. In doing so, the controller sets a first parameter for the image sensor as a function of a light pulsation period of the pulse-width modulated light source to reduce artifacts in the images associated with the pulse-width modulation of the light source. Further, the controller determines whether residual banding artifacts resulting from the pulse-width modulation of the light source are unacceptable in the images captured with the image sensor. Additionally, the controller performs, in response to a determination that residual banding artifacts are present in the images, image processing to correct the residual banding. The system outputs the resulting images with reduced artifacts for viewing by a user.

A system for generating three-dimensional (3D) images from captured images of a target when executing digital magnification. A controller executes a digital magnification on the first image of the target captured by the first image sensor and on the second image captured by the second image sensor of the target. The controller crops the first image and the second image to overlap a first portion of the target captured by the first image sensor with a second portion of the target captured by the second image sensor. The controller adjusts the cropping of the first image and the second image to provide binocular overlap of the first portion of the target with the second portion of target. The displayed cropped first image and the cropped second image display the 3D image at the digital magnification to the user.
