ABSTRACT:
A multispectral band imaging and detecting device for use with a catoptric zoom optical device having a focal plane. A plurality of electromagnetic radiation detectors are provided that are sensitive to one or more portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. An optical bench has the plurality of electromagnetic radiation detectors disposed thereon. A torque motor or the like is operatively connected to move the optical bench relative to the focal plane to move a selected one of the detectors into coincidence with the focal plane.
