Abstract:Target searching and tracking photoelectric systems are widely used in civil and military fields. Achieving both efficient search and fine-observation imaging while minimizing the volume and weight of the system is the most concerning problem. In this paper, a dual-mode integrated optical system is proposed, which shares large size components between large field of view (FOV) search module and high-resolution tracking module by using the Biconic Zernike freeform mirrors. Compared with the traditional searching… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
