OPTICAL-ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH MECHANICAL SCANNING FOR IMAGING Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC G02B26/10 

FIELD: physics; image processing.

SUBSTANCE: proposed optical-electronic device with mechanical scanning for imaging pertains to instrument making and electronics and is designed for visual observation of underlying surfaces and recording the obtained image in the visible and infrared spectrum ranges. Device comprises an optical system, consisting of an objective and a multi-area "ФПУ", a powered scanning unit with an angle transmitter, the axis of rotation of which is perpendicular to the optical axis of the objective, and an electronic signal processing unit. The device also has a second optical system, consisting of an objective and a multi-area "ФПУ" (with a different range from the first). The first and second optical systems are rigidly mounted in line inside the case of the scanning unit.

EFFECT: increased volume of the information obtained simultaneously in the channels for visible and infrared spectrum ranges, improved quality of the image and simple structure of the device.
