An optical system, and method related thereto, includes a camera configured to capture images. The camera has an adaptive aperture plane configured to change both an aperture size and an aperture shape in response to an aperture signal. The camera also includes a first polarized surface and second polarized surface positioned relative to the adaptive aperture plane, such that light strikes the first polarized surface, the adaptive aperture plane, then the second polarized surface. First and second lenses may be located on opposite sides of the adaptive aperture plane. An image sensor is beyond the second polarized surface and configured to output image signals, and a processor is configured to execute image perception algorithms based on the image signals. The image perception algorithms alter the aperture size and the aperture shape by sending an aperture signal from the processor to the camera for subsequent captured images.
