Satellitenkamera mit Bildebenenarray

An imaging system attached to a satellite (20) comprises pointable mirror (24), for transmitting a field of view of photonic radiation (44) to at least a focal plane array imager (28,30). The focal plane array imager (28,30) is mounted within the imaging system (22), displacements such as jitter and...

Zusammenfassung:An imaging system attached to a satellite (20) comprises pointable mirror (24), for transmitting a field of view of photonic radiation (44) to at least a focal plane array imager (28,30). The focal plane array imager (28,30) is mounted within the imaging system (22), displacements such as jitter and drift are capable of being applied to the imaging system (22), which can result in apparent movement of said field of view applied to the focal plane array imager (28,30). Stabilizing means (110) are provided for limiting the apparent movement of the field of view detected by said focal plane array imager (28,30) in two orthogonal sensed translational directions, and about a sensed rotary direction.
